No Sanicon
Hey all-
We have an '05 Holiday Rambler Ambassador. It had a Sanicon installed after market, I believe. The sanicon first stopped working about a year ago. The only thing I could see to replace was the cube-shaped relay, which seemed to fix the problem. Then after a few months, it stopped again. Again replaced the relay, worked for awhile, now stopped. Not sure if the relay actually fixed the problem, or it was a coincidence.
Anyway, it's completely dead now; no signs of life. I got out my voltmeter and poked everything I can see down there, but can't get any indication of power to the unit (not that I really know what I'm doing....). The separately-mounted on/off switch does have continuity through it, so that should be good. I can also get continuity through two posts on the relay.
It is a bit of a wired jungle down there, so I don't know if anyone can provide specific instructions, but thoughts are welcome. My nearest RV service tech didn't seem to know a lot about it, so I may be kinda stuck.
I understand that there is a fuse for it, but I can't find it.
Any thoughts?
Thanks-
Dave
