Hello, all. I just bought a 1994 Thor Ambassador 36 ft Coach. Unfortunately Its been sitting since 2012... :( I bought it for the Motor and the transmission, The Coach is Trashed inside due to zero love in last 10 years. I got the 12v Cummins Running and Air buids up for brakes and Such, but the digital shift pad is Dead, no power.. and I need a wiring Scematic for it So I do not smoke the internals getting it to light back up.

I am after the THOR side of the Harness at the shifter... it is not using an Allison or Heavy duty connector, and Therefore I cannot chase the pins as easy.

I am a mechanic, and chased this very same issue this summer on a Bluebird Bus. it was a 1/2 hr fix... but wiring harness is the trick...

I tried THOR coach site already, and they do not go back any farther than 2012 or so... :(

any and all help or links are aprecaited...

Thanks in advance, :bow: :bow: :bow:

Figured it out.

As a 30 year career auto mechanic, it saddens me as to how poorly the service side of all vehicle related industry has become. I spent 2.5 days on the phone to many different Allison repair locations, and Allison direct tech support. Everyone passes the buck to another, or can’t help as this coach is too old. I finally pulled the shift pad and did a search for the part number. Lo and behold it’s an older wtec 2 supported unit. I immediately found ALLISONS WTEC 2 Md3060 tech repair manual complete book. 389 pages I think. Surfed thru it for pins and voltage info… went out yesterday and 10 minutes of troubleshooting and 2wires of fix later… the poor ole Rv moves and drives again under its own power……. :eek::thumb::eek::D

Persistence is my biggest fault/virtue…… :confused::D:confused:
