Anyone here experience this problem?

I have a problem with my 07 33DS that I and the dealer and Jayco
have been trying to figure out. So I thought why not bring it up
here and see is anyone has had anything simular.

The levelers, rear camera display, and electric door locks do
not work on their own. They will work if I hold in the AUX battery
button. These are the only devices I know of at this time, there
could be more. My feeling is these are all chassis battery
powered and maybe there is a grounding or miswiring somewhere that is
common to these devices only. The dash lights, radio, heater/AC, lights
all work fine.

I'm open for ideas

Just post the answer here and then we will tell him where to find
it. :)

How about the coach door - does it come out and retract OK?

Assuming you mean the steps, the rig is still at the dealer but if
memory serves me right it was slow and would not retract all the way
in.

I have found that the steps come out and go in even when I have the chassis battery disconnected and the coach battery kill switch by the door "off." Always makes me wonder how it is connected.

Our Ambassador had 2 kill switches in the battery compartment. It had 4 6V batteries for the house and 2 12V for the vehicle. OFF meant off when these switches were turned off. That does not seem to be the case with the Jayco.

I suspect I'm not the only one who is curious about your problem and is interested in learning more when details are known.

I believe it works off engine battery , they will come out and in with the disconnect switch off.
Turn the engine key and they automatically pull back in.

Gary, under the hood there is a battery connection because the location under the copilot is so inconvenient. The step even works when I've disconnected it under the hood - which leads me to believe that there much be another connection to the positive post I can't see - or it defaults to the coach battery and overrides the kill switch.

Just wanted to give ya'll an update. These devices all worked at one
time until my coach battery went dead, since recharging they have
not worked right since.

As of this afternoon it's still not resolved. The dealer says they
are trying to troubleshoot this by wire grouping.
