Our rigs has some wierd interlocks that I'd really like to change. I've seen or read that it can be done, but lost track of where to find the "how."
Basically I'd like to change everything from "is the engine running" to "is the parking brake set"
The slideouts and awnings will not work with the engine running.
The jacks require the key to be on, but the engine to be off.
Anyone have any hard info or schematics on how to change these interlocks from ignition to parking brake?
Interlocks are basically switches that switch power on or off. It should be easy enough for you to trace the wires supplying power to the items you want to control. It is YOUR coach, and YOU should make your own decisions as to whether or not you need any interlock. If your coach is out of warranty, do what you want.
Lawyers and our government control too many of our personal possessions as it is. Fine for those that need others to protect them from themselves.
I agree 100%.its your business.My MH has NO interlocks and I love that system.I can run slides with motor running which I do when dry camping to keep full power at batterys.I can put my jacks down with
engine running or not.My awning works seperate from all systems and its just plain nice to have it that way.I never worryed about park brake because I always have it on when perfroming jacks or slides etc
