Shut off while driving

Need some help with the coach shut off switch, just bought my class a and took a small trip to try it out and it shut off, lost all ignition looked at my switch and it wasn't lit up, switched it on and off a few times and got it going, made the 30 miles back home, backed it inot my spot and shut off again, read something about bypassing the solinoid, has anyone had this problem and what you did to repair it. Thanks!

Which coach do you have?

Personally we've never had ours spontaneously go to store mode. Sounds like a loose wire somewhere shorting.

Sorry thought by "coach shut off switch" he meant use/store.

An 02 model might still have a chassis disconnect...
My 2000 Four Winds Infinity did... Right next to the coach use/store.

If that solenoid disconnected, the engine would die...
