I am not with my coach right now but I did have an issue with the Aladdin operation, I had an issue with moving the selected field when I toggle to the right(on screen) the system appears to be stuck I can go left and was having some issues going up as well. I thought the selector switch might be the issue so I changed the drivers switch with the one from the kitchen. I still had the same problem moving the selection to the right.
I am not at the coach but thought I would run the issue by the great minds on the forum!

I'm having the same issue, but not always. I will be following this thread, interested in the knowledge of others!

Check the Coach Assist section Guys. I left a copy of my manual there and there appears to be one other, plus Bill Sprague put an Aladdin troubleshooting guide there as well. Perhaps among the 3 resources you'll find an answer.
If you can't change fields in some direction, it's often because the option doesn't actually exist off that particular starting field, even though by at first common sense it would seem to. That doesn't exclude the possibility there is a software fault that may require a system reset.
From one "great mind" to two others, ;D

Jerry,
I had the same issue with mine, it would hardly respond at all. I swapped it with the one from the Kitchen and that solved the problem a little but now it wont toggle down, only up.
NW RV Supply in Eugene, OR has these toggle switches. www.nwrvsupply.com/ (They are about $45 if I recall)
Problem is they have a different base than what was used in our coaches, it's much smaller. According to them, it can be made to fit but I have not tried that yet. I have been able to get by with the other switch, just have to toggle up only, selecting items on the menu by toggling right still works.
On the subject of Aladdin, I was quoted about $3,600 by Silverleaf when we were at Canyonville last year to swap out the Aladdin. I might do that someday but I like Tim's solution of mounting a small tablet or PC and using the VMSpc software they have.
Good Luck!

Hi Dean, It sounds like the same issue my rig is still in AZ waiting for the new cooling fan(from SAI in Italy) I really didn't get to see if changing the toggle did much because we could not run the rig. I will be back on this project in March. I am now thinking that the problem may be in the Aladdin since the change of the toggle didn't seem to help much I did see some movement improvement but not A OK.
I may try to switch the bedroom toggle with the drivers just to make sure before going into a change of system.
