Thanks, I actually started doing that, but decided to disconnect each connector to the 12V Distribution Board after looking at the schematics. This "should" be like pulling all the fuses associated with each connector at once. My hands are big and I was hoping to avoid pulling each fuse independently.
However, it would be rude for me to ask for advise and not follow it (particularly if I was wrong in my assumption), so I did pull each fuse and still the same result, 1 Amp draw. So I concluded the current isn't being drawn through that board, so I went into the coach, checked the smoke alarm and CO2, both are off and isolated. They must be fed by the Chassis battery, which I have isolated with a knife switch.
I then decided to flip the dash switches, AUX1, AUX2, MAP, and Start Boost. The Start Boost switch appears to be at least part of the problem, it is a bit loose and didn't spring back like it should. I went back to my current meter thinking maybe I found the problem, but alas, it was still drawing 1 Amp. As I stood there staring at the 1 Amp draw trying to figure out what to do next, I heard "clunk", and it dropped down to a more reasonable 0.1 A.
Now the step won't go in. I figure I better document all this here in case some poor SOB runs into this. Its looking like maybe there is some solenoid sticking, either with the step (if it has a solenoid?), or maybe the Start Boost Solenoid was stuck on for a long time, due to a bad Start Boost Switch. I'll document what I ultimately find, but at least it seems I'm getting close!
Thanks!
Joe
