Came back from Arizona and arrived home April 12th....after having been in the motorhome for 7 months, kind of just parked it....Did have a few issues coming back....our cruise, windshield wipers, horn ,started acting up and then quit all together...thank God for Rainex....checked fuses, connections going my smart wheel,control box...no loose wires...anyways...continued our journey home....as we were driving the coach suddenly stalled intermittently and re-started,...noticed on the dash lights...ABS came on...the little glow plug squiggly came on...just like you would be starting the coach and then the amber check engine light would come on...did this every now and again, out of the blue, no particular reason...a few times it stalled a little longer and when it started again, the check engine light came on and so did the check transmission light came on..(that scared me) the coach sort of jerked when it started again....weird...otherwise the coach runs fine....oh by the way, thought maybe i,d check and see if it was the fuel filters{changed them both)...drove a couple of hundred miles home and still the same thing happened......could my Smartwheel issue be connected to the stalling issue????...Any Suggestions greatly appreciated

Doubtful that they're connected. My SmartWheel totally quit working but I had no trouble with the engine/transmission.

Glad to have you here in the forum with us. You're gonna like it here.

It would help us if you had more info about what make MH you have. You can post it in the User CP drop down under signature. Just like the signature at the end of my post.

Happy Trails!!!

To start with, I'd check all your battery connections including all grounding connections for both house and chassis batteries. Battery age and conditions???
