Hello fellow RVers,
I am facing a No Crank, No start issue with my 1991 Rexhall Airex on a F53 chasis with the Ford 460 engine.
I found that Tomed01 was facing a similar problem and followed the steps in his thread to troubleshoot. http://www.rvforum.net/SMF_forum/index.php/topic,90211.0.html
When I crank the key, all I get is one click and everything goes dead. The Battery connectors have to be disconnected and reconnected to get power back.
Here are the steps that were taken:
1) Replaced Battery
2) Checked for voltage across Battery posts and Battery connectors with Multimeter. (12.6V seen across both loops)
3) Checked Battery ground to the chasis. Removed the set screw, sanded down the ground connectors and wires and reattached.
4) Located the Started Relay on the Radiator support. I jump the 2 terminals on the Relay. I got some sparks (i gather the ignition switch is energizing the starter relay) but got nothing from the starter with the key in "on" position.
Only thing remaining is removing and bench testing the starter, but the top mounting 1/2 inch bolt is broken.
While I figure out how to remove the broken stud, I would appreciate any other recommendations for further troubleshooting?
