I'm having a problem with the "override" switch for my electric step. The light in the switch had burnt out so I got a new switch. Now I can't get the new switch (or the old one ) to work. After checking it out there is no power to the hot wire to the switch. The step still works when I open and close the door, but I can't make it stay down. I checked the fuses under the dash but not in the front panel under the hood. I guess that is what I will have to do this weekend.

P.S. - John H. those LCD TV's look good. Now I know what they would look like in my 2005 3106 Daybreak. I've changed out the mini blinds for day-night shades. Now I need to convince the wife that the old TV's are too heavy...

Tokruys...sorry to go off topic here a minute, but what shades did you get?
I saw the MCD's at the Perry show and really liked them.

Well I got it fixed.
There was a blown fuse at the BCC (Battery Control Center) under the hood. Apparently the first replacement switch I tried had the 'Hot' terminal and the 'Step' flipped. So when I hooked it up it blew the fuse. It was black and the original was ivory. Then I found some white switches, so that is what I have installed and working...
