Ok. If you've read any of my previous posts you will know that I am struggling.
I have now replaced, chassis battery, alternator, starter motor and chassis disconnect solenoid.
Today I folded the door step away with the switch just inside the door and drove to the filling station ready for the trek to the racetrack tomorrow. Fired up and drove to the filling station absolutely faultless wayhay, no dramas, Fired up and drove home again, absolutely faultless. Once home I turned off the ignition and walked to the side door. I pressed the step button and , nothing, Neither of the solenoid lights were illuminated, I pressed coach and both coach and chassis illuminated. I turned them off with the coach button and they both went off. I pressed chassis and both illuminated, same again. Still nothing from the step switch!!! I took the boost solenoid out thinking that, for some reason, it was stuck on. Yes it was!! I refitted it once I 'unstuck it' and the solenois switches work as they should. Still nothing at the step switch though!!!
Any ideas from anybody please.
