Mike,

Thank you for posting. As we have discussed before, the knowledge base for Newells beyond 2005 is scant compared to the previous vintage coaches. As time goes by, posts like this, and more importantly, fixes and alternates will become very important to the owners of newer coaches. A prime example of a similar situation was the AC control boards. There were several flaws. A progression of gurus developed better and better solutions to the problem because the boards no longer existed. Finally, after about five years, Newell contracted someone to build replacement boards, but for that six years, going without AC was not going to make your trip a good one.

This issue with both the Dash and the Spyder are way beyond my pay grade, but hopefully someone with a background in electronics can take the time to do root cause analysis on the failure. Perhaps it is Surface mount failure. Perhaps it is power transistor failure.

Thank you for starting a thread that will hopefully lead to solutions.
