    In the car business BTSI is referred to as “bitsy” . Older cars had a cable interface also called BTSI

    Great advice and information. Thanks for passing on the knowledge and love for others. I’m dealing with a wiper module issue. Wipers stay on. The multi switch is okay, as well as the wiper motor. However, I can’t locate the fuse (not listed on diagram), which is 2006 Workhorse Tiffin Allegro. Any ideas where to look? I may have to replace the module.

    You are my #1 resource Kevin. I had the problem this morning where my RV wouldn't shift out of park. I tried everything, including getting out and rocking the thing manually front to back. I finally turned off the RV, shifted it into Neutral without it being started. Then I was able to start it in Neutral and get moving. After that, I was able to go in and out of park a few times with no problem. Not sure why it did that. But your video gives me a second option.

    Your videos are gold! Have you ever run into a situation where your brake pedal didn’t want to come all the way back up? When i press the brake pedal the RV stops or slows fine, but then my pedal stays slightly depressed, causing me to have to pull it up slightly with my foot. I checked and greased the linkage. Fluid reservoir is full. Any thoughts on the matter would be appreciated. Thanks for all you do in posting these videos!

    I had my wheel lock up a few times. Would uplugging the BTS1 fix this as well?
    I also found out about the relays a couple of years ago, when my w22 would not start. Unfortuneatly for me, it was the starter. But changing the relay helped to diagnose it.
    Thanks again for the vid Kevin!

Doesn't matter what position ignition key is in, with or without parking brake, etc. it will not shift into neutral. Going to try the relay next. This is getting old. Grr...
