04 Fourwinds won’t start now

So I’ve had this motorhome for about a month now and one of the issues I’ve been having is when I go to put out one of the slide outs I turn the hwh pump switch on and the pump immediately turns on and runs non stop. I traced it to a bad pump solenoid. Today I replaced that solenoid and now the rv won’t start. The pump works like it should now but the rv just won’t start. I also notice before I would turn the ignition on and a buzzer would sound for about 3-4 seconds. It doesn’t do that now. I have a feeling it has something to do with the leveling system or the slideouts or something but I’m just not sure. Please help me

I'm guessing the buzzer sound was the check to see if levelers were up. After the repair, the engine thinks the levelers are still down, so it won't start. Maybe sensor not hooked up or a bad ground somewhere. That's my best guess anyway.

That was my thought too but if a leveler was down wouldn’t it show a Red light on the joystick panel? The only light that shows up is the yellow light to the left as shown in this pic.

Dispite what the yellow light is telling you chack all you jacks should not see any shiney piston showing the sensor on top of jack will say its down. You can also push store button again for a reset of computer control for jack system.
See if that works.

He doesn't have a store button, he has a HWH joystick.

So I figured out the starting condition. Believe it or not it was a loose signal wire at the starter. Just happened to fail right after I replaced the pump solenoid. Go figure!!
