No Headlights 2001 Knight DP
Hi Everyone,
My 2001 Monaco Knight 36R Diesel pusher lost the head lights. All the other running lights work. Brake, tail, sidelights and backup. I have looked for a fuse in the front box and found what looks like a plug into the fuse board that says headlights. I hope this is not a circuit board.
This may have something to do with it. While camping this weekend it rained like there is no tomorrow all night and into the morning before leaving. When I plugged in my tow dolly the brakes on it where locked up. All the lights where working on it though. After towing the car a ways without the plug in I stopped and plugged in the plug and everything worked. I figured it was wet from all the rain and the rushing air and heat from the engine dried it out.
I really don’t know if the headlights where working during this or not. When I turned on the switch all the interior dash lights are on and I could see the side running lights so I assumed the headlights were on. I didn’t realize the headlights where out until almost home (still light out) when I went to flip the high beams on. I thought it was just the high beams. When I got home and checked no hi or low beams. Would one bad bulb make all the headlights go out? I pulled one and it looks good.
I have a wiring diagram book but is kind of Greek to me. Is there a fuse somewhere? I looked everywhere I could think of. Even pulled the panel under the dash put did not see anything that looked like a fuse.
I am at a lose as what to do. This is a pretty big problem as we are leaving for a cross country trip in about a week. I can go without headlights if I have to but I sure don’t like the though of that. Any help and suggestions will be appreciated as always.
Phil
