Can a solenoid be removed from a switch?
Although you have indicated difficulty in accessing the solenoids, you should be able to feel for the fuses in order to remove and check them. Since you can’t readily see or access the solenoids, you can attempt to troubleshoot the problem from behind the switch panel. Turn both switches to the “use” or “connect” position.
Is there a way to disconnect a 12 volt battery?
The Intellitec Battery Disconnects provide a simple, safe and reliable means of remotely disconnecting 12 Volt or 24 Volt battery systems. These unique latching disconnects designed and manufactured by Intellitec are capable of carrying heavy currents.
When to replace the solenoid on an RV?
If so, you have a faulty switch. If the same solenoid still doesn’t work, then the solenoid is faulty and needs to be replaced. Any other problem would likely indicate a problem with the control panel itself. Remember to return the switch wiring to their original positions.
Do you need a spring loaded switch for a battery disconnect relay?
The designation is (on) off (on) when looking for a switch. You do NOT want a non-spring loaded switch! The switch wiring can be very small, even telephone wire as there is very little current draw to operate the solenoid. The Bosch relay circuit is an option, and that prevents accidental shut down of your battery while the vehicle is running.

How does the IntelliTec battery disconnect relay work?
They require no power to stay open or closed, the Intellitec battery disconnects only draw power during activation. The disconnects are sealed against the environments and are designed to withstand the shock and vibration experienced within commercial vehicles, trailers, coaches bus or boat applications. How does Amazon calculate star ratings?
What to do if your battery disconnect switch is bad?
Once you find the solenoid, check with a volt meter to find the 12 plus line. Then apply a jumper between that 12 volt line and the control terminal. If the solenoid operates then the switch is bad. If it doesn’t then the solenoid is bad. Just a way to isolate the problem.
