Its my fault...
The Winnebago had been sitting for several months, and the main battery was dead. Flipping the switch to connect the coach batteries didn't help, but they were charged, so...
I used jumpers and connected the coach batteries (correctly pos-pos,etc.) to the main battery.
Turning the ignition switch produced a loud Zap! and the jumpers started smokin'. :)
It may have been funny to see me hopping around trying to disconnect the smoking cables, but it left me with a dead motorhome.
I think that either the Voltage regulator, Battery disconnect, or Solenoid is fried. How do I check?
If I try to connect a battery to the main cables now... the cables immediately heat up. There appears to be a major short (in the Battery disconnect or Solenoid?)
Any ideas? Thanks. |
