Hi There,

We have a Bailey Olympus 546 2010.  Have been on hols in France.  When we hooked up to come home the ATC did not go through its start up wiring and a had a constant red light on.  In the past it has done this and rectified itself in the first couple of miles
(gone green).

It has not done it this time.  The van felt as stable towing as it normally does.  I disconnected the electric lead on the ferry, when I re-connected this as we docked it whirred into life but still a red light.  Towed OK coming home, though still a red
light.

Are there any checks I can do or should I put it straight into a dealer? 

Any advice or assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Darren

    According to the instruction manual you have probably filled the ATC error logfile memory to maximum. To clear you will need to leave the ATC connected to the car for at least 12hrs i.e. switched on. Once clear the ATC should function but you may have a
    problem in the supply to the ATC from the car i.e. your permanent feed is "making and breaking. Thats as I understand it and needs some more posts from members with experience of the actual problem, as no practical experience myself.
