lights will not go off.....

[Will Procter]

Last night while driving the camera came on showing the rear. I thought it was odd and I tried to turn it off but it would not. When I stopped and shut down, the back up lights and camera were on and would not go out. I had to disconnect the chassis batteries to turn it off. This morning, I went and reconnected the batteries and there was a minor arc as i attached a positive cable and then I heard a hum and clicking sound.

Any ideas?????

Was the clicking sound coming from the rear of the coach?

Back up switch? Sorry I know that we have one on the shifter, really not sure about those newer coaches.

I would start by checking the relay to the back up lights located in the engine electrical bay. It may be stuck shut thereby turning on the back camera anytime the backup lights are on.

A switch stuck in the closed position. Wire grounding out somewhere to another one. When the battery arc was seen, it indicated a draw of power somewhere in the coach.
