recently experienced a no start on motorhome. all dash gauges come on, all fuses are good. had just dumped air, leveled coach then after retracting jacks went to start and nothing. only items that are now not working are 1)allison trans. touch panel is not working (no lights indicating neutral) and 2) jacks down warning buzzer is now not working (jacks still work ok for extend and retract). have checked all relays under dash and visually inspected wire harness to rear for faults. Help.

battery OK? Parking brake pulled out like it should be? House batteries up? Did you try the MOM start?

Bet it is going to be something simple.

Welcome to the forum by the way. Good people here.

shipwreck, you could check out www.discoveryowners.com, they have a lot of folks on there that could just about build you a Discovery, good luck, Ken Roberts, former Discovery owner, Littleton, MA...

I had the exact same problem, but on a gas chassis. The parking brake light wire had fallen off of the switch on the parking brake. The levelers would not turn on and engine would not crank.

What was the repair. I have the same problem. I have been stranded for two days and cannot find the problem to correct it.

My Allison 3060 has a wire that feeds off chassis battery with a fuse very close to battery. Wire and fuse were good, but just behind battery was a butt connector that had gone bad. Out of sight until really hunting for it. Cost towing insurance $1000+ and cost me $200 + at Allison place. Good luck, HarveyP
