I had a problem on a recent trip, the brake light in the center dash area was on and the chime sounded. In addition to the switch a relay was replaced, it was grey in color.
I have a 2007 Jayco Seneca 34SS

The relay is in the engine compartment, not sure where but I do have the old one still but the unit is at the dealer right now.
I will get the replaced relay and see if I can locate where it mounts.
There were two stored codes for my problemI will get info on them too.

I have an '08 Bigfoot 40MH32st with a 330 hp Duramax LLY engine. This is a Chevy C5500. I've experienced a problem twice with the turbocharger mapping sensor (TMS). This sits on top of the engine just under the engine air cleaner. The GM dealer told me this is a common problem. Seems that the large round air cleaner bounces up and down as you travel down the highway, which tends to knock the TMS loose. This causes you to lose the turbocharge and power. Bummer! I had to be towed twice. Final a mechanic at the GM dealer showed me its location. He put zip ties across it so it can't come lose again.

Well, have towed a fifth wheel 38 foot trailer with my 2005 Chevy Duramax for over 100,000 miles. Just traded the trailer in Saturday on a 2009 Jayco Seneca HD 36MS with the Duramax in it. We'll see if that Duramax is as good to me as my truck has been!!

My biggest complaint with our Jayco Seneca 34SS is the tank sizes are very small and are not adequate for more than a short weekend of dry camping.
BAD BAD BAD I will not own another Jayco product again.
