Trouble Shooting
Problem
House indicator light is off
although relay is on
(latched). BD0 & BD1
MODELS ONLY
Possible
Cause/Solution
Verify that the relay is actually in the disengaged
(unlatched) state. With a test light, probe the larger
5/16" stud terminals on each side of the relay. Only
STEP 16
one terminal should be powered up in the
disengaged state. If both studs are powering up the
test light go to step 8. If only one 5/16" terminal is
powered up go to step 17
Remove the battery disconnect panel from cabinet
/ console and with a multi-meter set on DC
voltage, measure between the green wire at pin # 5
and the black wire on pin # 6. The voltage should
STEP 17
read 0 Volts DC. If it reads 0 VDC then replace
switch panel, refer to PARTS LINK #2 (page 8). If
the voltage reading is the same as the nominal
battery reading then go to step 18.
Disconnect the plug from the battery disconnect
panel, with a multi-meter set on DC voltage,
measure between the green wire at pin # 5 and the
black wire on pin # 6. The voltage continues to
STEP 18
read 12 Volts DC go to step 19. If it now reads 0
VDC then replace switch panel, refer to PARTS
LINK #2 (page 8).
Leave the battery disconnect switch unplugged. At
the relay location, disconnect the green wire from
the relay. With a test light, probe the fuse for
STEP 19
voltage. If the test light powers up, replace the
relay and retest. If it does not, then probe the green
wire. If there is voltage present replace the harness,
refer to PARTS LINK #1 (page 7)
Possible
Cause/Solution
Verify that the relay is actually in the engaged
(latched) state. With a test light, probe the larger
5/16" stud terminals on each side of the relay. Both
STEP 20
terminals should be powered up in the engaged
(latched) state. If only one is powering up the test
light go to step 1. If both 5/16" terminals are
powered up go to step 21.
