Hello, we just purchased the above type motorhome - new to rv's and our signals and flashers don't work any ideas? Also we would like to know how to get a manual for above? Just new to this forum stuff too so sorry if I don't have hang of it yet! Any help or suggestions would be most appreciated!

That's cool took me a while to get use to the site.

You can check at the flasher to see if it has 12V when turned on by usint a meter or light tester if it has power then change the flasher out.

Welcome. I am also pretty new to this forum stuff but getting tons of info and really enjoying it.

You might want to post more specific chassis info to get more specific feedback ( ford, Chevy, etc)

Try the coach manufacturer for manuals that you can download and same for the chassis.

I amI sure with enough info to work with someone on the site will know exactly how to fix. Maybe a little more detail about problem. Any clicking, do other lights work? Definatley get flasher checked out

Not getting a lot of replies I see, every body must be out camping. Do the brake lights work? Headlights? Marker? Taillights? Or are they lighting up but just not blinking?

I think you'll find that it's on a ford F53 chassis. It's also possible that it could be a 94 chassis, but 95 Coach. My last MH was a 95 on a 94 chassis. If you need parts for the chassis Napa is the best place as the other parts places (at least around here) don't have a clue. Sorry that I can't help with your issue. Had 94000 miles when traded it in and only real issue was the brakes hanging up. Had to change all 4 calipers and 1 rotor. Also did the water pump at 90,000 miles. There was also issues with the right side exhaust manifold breaking the bolt out of the head at the rear. I had put the Banks stainless steel exhaust headers on it instead of getting new ford manifolds. Hope I didn't discourarge you , overall it's a great chassis.

Hi he has the brake lights working but the signals and flasher don't work. They do not make any sound at all. thank you for getting back to us we appreciate the support and look forward to getting out on the road!

My husband says he thinks its a 94 chassis as you said. We have a Napa parts place around here so that is good news. I hope we have a while before huge amounts have to go out on it...just on the verge of retirement and I would like to get some use soon. thank you for your help and support!
