No voltmeter reading on 
battery disconnect panel 
display panel (Read Volts 
Coach). 

BD3 MODEL ONLY 

Trouble Shooting 

Problem 

Possible 
Cause / Solution 

Check fuse on house relay that attaches to the green 
wire. If not blown go to step 70, if blown replace 
with size fuse and retest. If fuse / fuses re-blow go to 
step 9. 

STEP 69 

Remove the battery disconnect panel from cabinet 
/ console and with a multi-meter set on DC 
voltage, measure between the green wire at pin # 
10 and the black wire on pin # 12

The voltage 

should read whatever DC voltage as the batteries 
read (typically around 12 volts). If it reads 0 VDC 
then inspect the harness for damage, or replace 
harness, refer to PARTS LINK #1 (page 7). If the 
voltage reading is the same as the nominal battery 
reading then replace battery disconnect panel, refer 
to PARTS LINK #2 (page 8) 

STEP 70 

Trouble Shooting 

Problem 

No voltmeter reading on 
battery disconnect panel 
display panel (Read Volts 
Chassis). 

BD3 MODEL ONLY 

Possible 
Cause / Solution 

Check fuse on chassis relay that attaches to the 
yellow wire. If not blown go to step 70, if blown 
replace with size fuse and retest. If fuse / fuses re-
blow go to step 9. 

STEP 71 

STEP 72 

Remove the battery disconnect panel from cabinet 
/ console and with a multi-meter set on DC 
voltage, measure between the yellow wire at pin # 
11 and the black wire on pin # 12

The voltage 

should read whatever DC voltage as the batteries 
read (typically around 12 volts). If it reads 0 VDC 
then inspect the harness for damage, or replace 
harness, refer to PARTS LINK #1 (page 7). If the 
voltage reading is the same as the nominal battery 
reading then replace battery disconnect panel, refer 
to PARTS LINK #2 (page 8)
