Engine does not start with main battery. tony Vega 7-30-08  
I have a 1996 Gas Bounder. When you turn the key to start, it sounds like the battery is dead a clicking sound is heard like a relay. If you use the Aux push button and turn the key the engine starts everytime. the main battery is new. All connections are clean and tight.

Sounds like the battery is dead. Check it. Then figure out why it is not charging. Info like how long has been parked. and are you having any other electrical troubles would help. Good Luck

I am having the same problem. Both my battery are new. connections are good. Will start right up on Aux. The Bus tech does not sound too smart. You told him your battery was new and all connections were good, and still he gave a lame answer. Good luck with you problem. If I can come up with the answer,I will let you know.
