Master Battery Disconnect Switch - HELP!
I've just bought a 2006 Greyhawk 31SS and I'm trying to figure out some of the systems and several items in the owner's manual. I'm puzzled about an entry concerning the Master Battery Disconnect Switch. The switch itself is a mystery, too. As for the switch, it doesn't "click" when it's pushed in. When pushed and released, it simply returns to the original position without giving any indication as to whether anything has happened. Is this normal? With the coach battery providing the sole power for the house lights, I pushed the disconnect switch several times, with no effect on the lights. Is that an indication a problem?
As for the journal entry, the following is puzzling and provides little help: "This momentary switch controls a latching type solenoid (located near the coach battery), which connects or disconnects the “coach” battery dependent upon the number of times it is pushed." What the heck does that mean? How many times does it take to have an effect on the "coach" battery? One? Two? Three? When the switch gives no indication of "on" or "off" or anything else, how do you know whether or not you have effected the battery?
Anybody got any ideas? Am I missing an obvious answer to the question?
