Just wanted to check back in and thank everyone for some great advice and offer an update on my electrical issue with my HR.
The past two weeks have been a true lesson. I took my coach to the local Freightliner Service Center. After many conversations with the service writer and about 14 hours of diagnostic work, the tech identified the Smart Wheel module as the issue. They replaces the module and the lights are in perfect working order.
For those of you that offered comment on the high cost to diagnosis this problem, you were 100% correct. I chocked a couple of times when I wrote the check. But here is the true lesson...Before I threw in the towel on fixing the problem myself, I removed that very same module from the dash and had it in my hands with a thought to replace it. I should have trusted my initial instincts and just replaced the **** thing. But live and learn.
Thanks again, friends and have a great holiday.
