If you have a digital camera,take a picture before you disconnect any wires -- Batteries or anything else -- Hope you`re started by now -- Bill Willard

I agree with the others a wire has not been reconnected. I have found it is a good idea to tie all the wires together from each terminal with a wire tie and and label it. All wires will always go back on the correct terminal and my MH has a bunch of wires, to easy to loose one. Don't ask me how I know this, been there done that.

Happened to me, forgot/missed connecting that little wire with the doughnut connector on it. Might want to crawl under and check voltage at the starter while cranking.

Thanks to everyone for their responses .....jacks are not down; did the color coding of all wires before disconnected and all connections are back in place (checked and rechecked). Also talked to Holiday Rambler tech support. He is thinking its the starter (loose wire if no voltage or they get cantankeorus and need wacked with a hammer if you have voltage). We did the hammer wack and checked voltage. Appears voltage at starter is not up to par. Will be rechecking this again this evening. We are hoping we are close to figuring out the mystery. Again, thanks to all of you.

If you have low voltage at the starter, check the starter wire at the battery to see if some of the wire pulled out or broke off at the terminal connection. If you have wires broken off inside the terminal, that will cause low voltage at the starter.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned to see if it is in neutral....maybe a bad or misaligned neutral safety switch.
Sure, this is your first DWI spot check. How many beers did you say you had?

As a last resort -- try doing the old computer fix -- CTRL-ALT-DEL. Seriously, there are computers in there and for some odd reason if you disconnect power for say 20 minutes and then reconnect, it may work, but no guarantees.
