Starting problem: 2004 Gulf Stream Sun Voyager

Recommended Posts

We have 2004 gulf stream sun voyager. 

we drove it the a few days ago and all was good.  when we stopped  and tried to restart there were no lights on the dash and it would not start.  thought it was a battery issue so purchased 3 new batteries and that did not help. 

we are able to start using the emergency safety switch on the dash.  is there a safety kill switch that could have been hit and we do not know it. 

thanks in advance

it has a 8.1 workhouse engine with Allison auto transmission

the toggle switch is on the dash and it stated that if you put in a new battery hold it for about 3 seconds and try to start.  if that does not work hold that switch and crank the key at the same time.  that worked.  I think that is using the coach batteries to start the chassis.

akdarnell,

Welcome to the FMCA Forum.

Please tell us what chassis you have-- that will help.

And, when you say it would start "using the emergency safety switch on the dash" are you referring to the boost/battery combine switch?

You purchased 3 new batteries - were these all coach (house) batteries or both the coach and the engine start battery? If you did not change the engine start battery, then that could very well have been the one that failed.

Be sure to check all chassis battery connections including the ground connections. I trust that you did hold for three seconds to reset any type breaker.
