Last weekend I was working on Gladys. As it was getting warm and I had the gennie running anyway I turned the aircon on. About 15 minutes later I was outside but heard the aircon turn off. When I went back in I saw the switch was still on. :Sad:Not having enough time to check I left it until today.
So, I started by checking the A/C trips which were fine.
It was at this point I realised the lights were off as well. So was the heating and the tank monitors as well.
So back to the batteries, full voltage. Check the main battery isolator and that's ok as well. Got to be the main fuse, nope. Back to the internal fuse panel and no power. So it's got to be the cable between the main fuse and the fuse panel. Spent an unproductive hour trying to find out where the cable runs.
Fortunately I've got a complete set of wiring diagrams so I spent the next 90 minutes poring over wiring diagrams trying to figure out where there might be a break. Absolutely nothing.
Sat there, wondering where I can get professional help. Failing that a mechanic might come in useful.
Oh well, make some calls tomorrow and start to leave and as I do my eyes fall on....the remote battery isolation switch
oh:
Press it and everything springs back to life
Just one question, who turned it off? errrr that'd be me then:Blush:
Just goes to show, always check the obvious things first.
Oh well, alls well that ends well
