Update on my issues.

After the dealer in MD could not get me in for 2 months I decided to go about fixing it myself because I need to get to SC to see the eclipse. As it turned out, the wiring connector from the motor to the coach had the connecting pins pushed in too far (on motor side). I used a pair of pliers and carefully pulled all the pins so they were straight and aligned. Then carefully put it back into the coach end connector. I tested it several times over the course of 4 days and not once has the controller reported the error on motor 1. Everything works like it is supposed to.


Next on my list is figuring out where the short is on my headlights. I found the wiring bunch causing the issue, but it started to rain and I had to stop. There are about 5-7 splices in the wiring harness going from one side of the coach to the other and there must be a bad splice in there someplace on the driver's side. I mean really? You couldn't use one freaking piece of wire? It looks like pieces of scraps were spliced together just to connect the lighting in the front. Once it stops raining, I am going to take the wires out of the plastic sheath and start checking each wire to see where the short/broken splice is.
