On our lone C2 the buzzer that indicates the roof hatch or side window emergency exits are unlatched is not functioning. The buzzer for the emergency door works fine. Most likely causes?? Now where are those Thomas guys went you want them?

What Generation Window?
- The flapper handles
.....Reed Switch not being engaged/depressed by handle
.....Reed Switch failure
- The cam-in Latches
.....Window has magnets @ top & bottom of rear vertical edge
.....Frame has prxomity sensors engaged by those magnets
.....Make sure the magnets are still there
- Roof hatches = the same as any other
What is your contact info?

Urea-ing all over E-EGR. (ugh! I gave into temptation...once again.)

I may not know the answer but I can usually find who does.

The windows have the "flapper" handle. The fact that the buzzer does not work on both roof hatches and all 4 emergency exit windows leads me to believe the problem is not in the switches.
I dunno the whole thing is just urea-ing me off

Something else is going on with this bus now. Its an air brake unit and the chime and light that indicate the parking brake are on, intermittantly come on during vehicle operation, when this happens the on with parking brake release headlights, go out.

Local dealer suspects the problems are related and its a switch hub going bad.
