Salesman not energizing the 12Vs

July 05, 2023, 03:35:54 pm

I have voltage on both sides of the switch by the door but I don't hear the solenoid close and of course no 12v operational...  the switch is working correctly.

Where do I look for the solenoid in a 2004 295?

I shut it off a week ago when I put it in storage and it worked properly....

Thanks....

Cannot answer your specific question (someone will soon) but check and make sure all the batteries have 12 volts.

Well what do you know.... Look in the manual and there was a hand written note in the electrical section stating that the solenoid is located right behind the hydraulic pump in the bay with the air compressor! It has a resettable fuse and sure enough it was popped so a quick press down and all is well.
I'll have to check its size and see about a replacement in case there are recurrences.

I hope this helps someone else!
