Hi all...first I am a newbee at the world of R/V. I recently picked up a 1097 Damon Challenger from a friend of mine. Besides a good bath and a few minor issues, seemed like would be a fun adventure.
I drove it home last Sunday, with almost no issues. I pulled in the drive and shut off. Last Saturday I started to pull it over to give it a bath and it will not move! There is a auto park dash light on.
Thanks to this fourm, it at least told me what to look for. I found the green switch on the frame rail in a box. I checked the fuild and seems to be almost full. Where do I go from here?? Any help would be appreciated.
Greg

Try this link for now and if you think you need anymore information try a search here for "auto brake" and you'll get a ton of places to look.

Thank you all..I have read all the emails, and ordered a new (RGS). It arrived on Saturday, So I will install it first thing in the am. Fingers crossed that this is what the issue is.

Be very careful when you change it out.... Do not strip or back out the thin metal/aluminum nut in front of the RGS. It's explained in the emails
Good luck

Well....first thing this moring I crawled under the R/V. I replaced the (RGS) Rotten Green Switch..Praying as I tighten that this resolves the issue. Double checking the fuild just before I slid out from under. With fingers crossed as I turn the key to start. She starts up fine....With the Auto Park Light on.....I put it in Drive.......Bam! The auto park light is gone and the unit moves again.
Thanks to Ron...Outsedbear...He has helped another in need.
Have a good day!
