Help with a Weird Problem . . .

Hi All!

So I come home from work and the two lights on each side of the bottom of the bumper (running? Fog?) are on.

I go into the coach and the key isn't in the ignition and the lights are off. I start the coach and let it run, and then turn it off. I tried a few other things with no luck. I called Thor and spoke to Tim. He said that he thought there may be a short in the ignition and there was an ignition signal being sent to the lights or something like that. While chatting I discovered the house batteries were dead.

Tim suggested that I take it for service. I said ok, thanked him and hung up. But my hunch was that the lights were supposed to be on for some reason. So I ran the coach for a little while until I could get enough to start the generator. I let the generator run for 4 hours to charge the house batteries. I went out to the coach and the batteries were charged, and the lights magically were off.

Does anyone have a clue what went on? Should I be worried or is it normal?

Thanks everyone,

Bill
