My power jack is not working although the light switch on the component seems to come on. The fuse is in good shape, too. Is there somewhere else on the coach that could cause this failure? Need some advice, please. thanks-

My Barker VIP also developed switch problems

Also, was out of warranty
The fine folks at Barker sent me the whole top switch cover complete with new switch
and light , pre wired

If you have a meter , you can check a couple of things
set the meter to read DC volts
and see if you have 12 volts going to the switch and motor

1) disconnect the motor leads , set the meter to read ohms or continuity
put the meter probes onto the motor wires
If there is a circuit there then the motor is probably good
2) run the same check , this time with the switch
This will tell you if the switch is good or not

A temp jumper wire run from battery (+)
and manually
Touched to the motor positive terminal as needed
will
Have you back in the jacking business until the new parts show up

Hope this was of some help
