Has anyone installed a cover, maybe even locking-type, over the two electric rear stabilizer jack switches on the outside of a coach so equipped? Thanks.

Brian,

I'm wondering why you would need additional covers or locks?

We have installed covers over the switches for some. We have taken the flip up covers that go over your outside electic outlets and placed them over the switches. It does hide them and does keep possible little fingers from maybe playing with them.
Never have placed a locking type door over them.
Just one way that we have attempted to cover them up.

Great idea Tom! Bryan will probably take your idea and make big $$$ as an Excel option in the future!

I once broke one of the outrigger switches I beleive from brushing up against one of those small orange pillons dividing lanes in a road construction zone and think had there been a cover over them it would have just bounced around. A call to Barker and I had a new switch in a couple of days.
