Welcome Brian 53 to the Newmar forum & irv2,
From what I'm reading your slides have control of your ignition start.
I have a 03 KS and have never run into this situation.
Here is the
Newmar slide instructions for their different slide situations.
This is your
slide control unit.
Checking your previous posts find out you have a Freightliner chassis.
I still have not seen anywhere where slides will control your DP starting circuit never run into problem on my gas coach.
You have a coach build number where
you can go into this link and see if your have any TSB's for your DP with a fix for this type problem.
I checked the general TSB's for 2003 DP's in Technical Reference and found many but they are for the Spartan chassis nothing for your DP and nothing in reference to a starting problem for their DP's.
Your number similar to mine would look like 700963 add CS ---700963CS.
Once you input number you have access to your pacific coach, if you have a problem let us know.
Just checked your controler on pin # 9 its for ignition control it must go to a relay to cut off your ignition circuit.
The only problem we need the Freightliner chassis wiring of your DP TO FIND IT.
If you have a main fuse location for your chassis batterys and in that location you may have a group of relays and one for start.
One other thing is you could put in a cut off switch on lead wire #9 and cut off control lead into slide control unit.
I would make sure by testing what this will create when you do this.
Just a side note if you go to the
Quick Tips & Mods link you will find other slide controls if the one I gave you isn't the one.
Welcome to the forum.
