Hi Everyone, So I did make it home yesterday but I just didn't have time to update y'all. I spent most of the rest of the day/evening going through everything with my wife. She is very excited our new adventures.
The trip was 99.9 % awesome. The .01% negative comes from the horn getting stuck. I had a situation where two vehicles in front of me decided to try and merge together (too long to explain all of the details) and I had to lay on the horn to let them know that they were not by themselves. What happened next was a real joy. I took my hand off the horn but the horn did not stop blowing. It wasn't a constant sound but more like a blast, pause, blast, pause. Traffic was quite heavy and I was bout 7 miles from the nearest exit, which may have been amongst the longest 7 miles of my life. Anyway, I finally got off the road. My first instinct was to shut everything down and that the horn would stop. Nope, it just kept right on going. In the end I pulled the fuse and it stopped.

Now that was strange enough, but it gets a bit stranger, or at least perplexing. Please bare with me, I'm a little long winded. When I got home, I realized that the fuse that I pulled is also the one for the 12V power source (used to call them cig. lighters). I figured this out because my cell phone was dead. At that point I called Tom for some sage advice and as I am telling him my story, he started laughing and then I started laughing. What a hoot. He suggested that maybe if I was able to pull up the center cap logo on the steering wheel that there might be access and it was possible that the contacts were somehow stuck. I got my handy dandy little flat head screwdriver and wedged it under the edge label, pulled it up little to only find out that it has adhesive and that there was no access under it. So I stuck it back in place and decided not to mess with anything until this weekend.

So after showing everything to my wife, we headed for the storage facility. This was my first time really going through the shutdown process. I did everything that I thought I was supposed to do and then turned the battery switches off so as not to have any drain. Then I remembered that I forgot to activate the bay door locks from inside the coach. I hit the switch but nothing happened, which I immediately determined that nothing would happen because I had turned off the battery disconnects. I reengaged the switches and went back in the coach to activate the bay door locks. This is when I noticed the little blue light coming from the USB adapter that I had plugged into the cig. lighter. If you recall from earlier in this long winded story, I didn't have any 12V power when I pulled the fuse. Now I have 12V power and I hadn't put the fuse back in. So that part is still a mystery to me. I decided to reinstall the fuse to see if the horn would start blasting again. Low and behold, it did not. I tried the horn and it functioned just like it was supposed to (push and get a horn blast, release and no horn).
So my question is this. Does anyone have a clue why I lost my 12V power at the cig. lighter when I pulled the horn fuse and then why when I reengaged the battery disconnect switches, I had 12V back without installing the fuse? Can't wait to hear what you guys have to say. Thanks
