Looking for any information related to what the 2 toggle switches are for in our 2005 TS Select. The switches are located above the forward slide controller switches next to the antenna control in the passenger side overhead. I have attached photos for reference. The photo should have been rotated 180 deg for better reference to which way is up?

They don't look OEM -------------Previous Owner installed.

Pull plate and test for voltage 120V AC or 12V DC to start narrowing the search.

Scavenger hunt!

I must agree, they don't look OEM to me either. Also, what are the labels that look like a Coke bottle?

Lou,

The red labeled panels are for the antenna! See attached file?

Thanks for the info. Since the switches are not consistent with the normal TS configuration, does your rig have any obvious aftermarkets mods (ie: power blinds, dash fans, additional speakers, awning/roof/under coach lighting) that could have been installed by a previous owner? In addition to what Old-Biscuit stated I would also look for additional fuses that may be marked. Good luck and let us know what you find.

Could they be front and rear Girard awning switches?

The toggle switch mystery has been solved! The Camping World Team, in Burlington, WA found that the switches serve as electrical cutouts for the 2 front slides. The previous owner must have accadentlly bumped the slide out control switches and needed to have a way to lockout slide movement. Simple fix to prevent slide out damage!

I would like to add that the Camping World service and parts team in Burlington, WA has been a pleasure to work with they are true professionals and know the industry! It has not been easy finding a team we can trust our coach with but I endorse this team if you are in our neck of the woods and need assistance.
