Ok, one room or both rooms?
Coach is in travel mode and high idle?
Are slide seals deflating?


Cycle the park brake a couple of times with full air pressure.

There is a wire from the air switch on the back of the park brake that must make to ground. That is the HWH method of preventing you from deploying the slides while traveling. Is that what you meant by the Hobb?

I checked the Hobb. switch with a test light with the ground on one side of the terminals and got a blip of a red light on the activation of the Hobb switch so I put them together and nothing happened.

Yes I meant the park brake . and full air pressure , it's like I'm locked out some kinda way . I took the panel off the HWH box in the front driver side bay and checked the grounds checked some fuses with test light but it seems there's no power to it.

Do you have the little 12-volt pumps attached to the slides to deflate the seals. Make sure your seals are not stuck to the surround metal using a plastic spatula (you can steal one from the kitchen if nothing else) - we got a slick plastic putty knife from Homey Depot and run it around the slide seals each time we open them - it’s a pain but better than rolling a slide seal. Have you checked fuses for the slide? I don’t recall any but there are bound to be… Next best bet is call Newell - Ask Jim Raymond in Service, he will steer you to the right person… btw, unless we are staying somewhere for a month or more we rarely ever pull the slides out.

I think there may be a fuse or two in the passenger footwell area for the HWH.

I can't even get the yellow light at all when I turn the keys front and back.

ok update Richard went to the foot well fuses found #28 fuse did not have voltage going thru the fuse it looked good so I jumped 27 to 28 and got a ready yellow light so Dayna extended the salon the the bed room so I'm good for now I hope I can get them in when we need to leave, lol not a bad place to be stuck. but thanks to the Gurus for the help.WE ARE BEACH BOUND NOW THANKS EVERYONE !
