It gets better=85.

Now after I removed both side panels, insulated the sides, replaced the
paneling behind the couch/bunks I found a 2nd pin switch in the entry door,
with one brown wire that goes thru the floor, under the coach and is cut
off.

There is a rather nice on/off switch in the wall aft of the 2nd dinette sea=
t
that has one wire going to the bat terminal in the fuse box. The other wir=
e
goes to the aux terminal in the fuse box. Any idea what the PO had in mind=
?

Cheers,=20

John,

I'll get pics tonight. The door switch is at the top of the door frame,
this one is at the bottom.

Could it be a burglar alarm switch?

It could be that they either had an alarm on the door or they might =20
have had an electric step at one time.

Interesting, this reply never came thru my email.

I'll wire it up tonight as one of the wires was cut under the coach and we will see what happens.

The wire on the 2nd door pin switch was cut below the frame. I do not see any evidence of an electric door step as this coach came with two rather unusual door steps that hook on the frame when parked.

Many of us crazy folks do strange things. I have a second door switch
mounted about
2 inches below the original one. When I open the door I have 4 lights that
come on, I can
see everything in the front of the coach. JWID

I wired up the switch on the dinette wall, the one that has the leads going
to the Bat and Aux terminals in the fuse box.

It seems to mimic the Aux position of the key, all the usual dash lights
came on, the fan came on, etc.

The radio was not affected, I can turn it on and off without the key in the
ignition.

Really weird....

Wayne, could be, but I'm the 3rd owner of the coach and I didn't see any
other alarm stuff installed.

Who knows!

You are right he was just too casual. When I tried that I ended up with my
260 stripped to the bare ribs - and I still haven't gotten it back together.
