Need help to identify switch
I need some help identifying what the toggle switch does on the left side of the System Check gauge cluster. Silver toggle with big silver washer. It's a momentary switch that goes up and down. Heard a click a few times from the drivers side undercarriage, draws down some power when activating, but nothing seems to come on. My aux battery is dead.

Any help is appreciated!

Ok... I figured out the mystery switch!. It is the remote generator start switch. The house battery is not charged, so it seemed like the switch didn't do anything. But I can confirm the switch tries to start the penny.Smiler

Glad you got it figured out. No two are alike. There were no cookie cutter coaches made. I’ve seen the same paint scheme on the outside but they all vary in wiring and plumbing wildly.

It’s a guessing game. I have a switch like that on Midnight and it powers a slide that goes across the stairwell in front of the copilot seat. Motor was locked up. That was an interesting search.

The more I read all the thousands of post here the more I learn how unique the Barth MCs are!

I am hoping to do something similar and have the passenger seat slide back to over the stairs and lower to the living room deck. This would allow my 74 year old mom to sit in the comfy front seat and then I can lift and spin her into the passenger riding position.

Looking at electric lift and some new slide rails (that I will have to fabricate). It will be called my Nana Lift system Smiler
