Subject: Re: electrical short? Author: Bob Dilks [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 09/ 6/ 01, 1:10pm In reply to: Tom Ray 's message, "electrical short?" on 09/ 4/ 01, 3:43pm Tom: While you had a spooky experience, I no longer believe the noise you heard was paranormal, or the phone, or the cb. What you should have heard, and probably did hear, was the "Low Battery" alarm going off. It is located on the monitor panel and, no pun intended, sounds like it woke you. All in all your coach worked as designed. Had you been awake at the time and had the presence of mind to check the gauges, which none of us do in an emergency, you would have noticed the DC discharging exceeded the DC charging which would lead to a battery failure. While you still wouldn't have had a clue as to the reason for the draw, it would have told you your chargers were no longer up to the task. A typical PDI (pre delivery inspection) procedure for a coach is to turn on all the lights and see if the chargers can keep up with the demand by watching the gauges, if not, it points to faulty or inadequate chargers.
