Jamison,
Please, kindly, sign your post, as I/we have no idea what year and
model your coach is, so we are just forced to guess the type of layout
you have. On top of that, there are multiple members with electrical
issue, and it is almost impossible to keep track. If you already
posted on this topic, please include the previous description in your
last or initial post, as it jogs our memory and lets us easily and
quickly review your issue. I am more than willing to help, but the
moment my time is limited and on top of that my internet connection is
poor, so I don't have time digging for info. Please don't take
offense, but work with me.
Ok, after rereading your post, I think, if I remember correctly, that
you are the fellow whose engine won't shut off. If that is correct,
then you didn't answer the important question I asked, when I replied
to your initial post. The question was, did you recently install a new
alternator???
The reason I am asking, is if the alternator was installed
incorrectly, it WILL cause back feeding to your ignition, not allowing
the engine to shut off. So, if your answer is yes, please provide all
details on what brand and model of alternator it is and take pictures
of the backside of it. Make sure you take a few far away shots so the
wiring route can be seen too.
If you have not replaced the alternator, check the wiring on the back
side of the alternator to see if there is a diode on one of the wires,
if yes, the diode could have failed, causing the back feeding. Also
check and test your ignition switch for proper function, it could have
shorted out internally.
