Newell Gurus

Hello everyone,

We are leaving on a trip this Thursday, so I went to the coach to check the engine bay fluids and belt. When I push the button on the top handle I have no power (no click) which unlocks the latches? Any ideas? I checked fuses in the electrical bay, everything was good. 

Thanks,

Walt,

Are you referring to the Engine Bay latches? I'm not aware of your era having electric latches.

The engine bay should have 4 latches that are mechanically released with a handle via cables to each latch.

If, for some reason, you have electric buttons that operate latch/actuators, and you've checked the fuse supply, then the answers will be one of two places:

1) the switch as failed, so run a continuity test between the two posts of the switch
2) the actuator has failed; this is more unlikely because I imagine your coach has more than one latch/actuator, and I'm sure they didn't all fail at the same time.
