Not familiar with the naples but on my 97 yorktown the solenoid is located on the front wall of the engine bay under the bed along with    the boost solenoid and the battery isolator for the alternator .
On this fire wall there are also two 200 amp fuses one of them is for the coach power and may be your problem.
Hope this helps Eric

Fortunately it appears that it's just the relay.  I ordered one from RVA and it should be here tomorrow.  I really appreciate help.  I'll post an update when it's for sure.

Great to hear you got it to a competent shop.
The troubleshooting can be done with nothing but a good multi meter the special tooling is nice to have but not essential.
but the nature of these coaches mean working in places a bad back won't let you go.
It sounds like the service manager has a good handle on the problem and will have you up and running quickly.
Good news.
Keep us posted

    Lonnie,
If it is the salesman switch relay, It is the one near the batteries as Steve stated. Should look like the one within the oval circle in the photo. Fred

Hi Steve, that’s the first place I looked, but there are no relays or solenoids or anything else in my battery bay except batteries. The mass of heavy gauge battery cables disappear out the back of the bay and head towards the engine compartment (under the bed). I suspect if I trace the cables they will lead to a solenoid bolted to the frame near the engine or on the firewall under the foot of the bed. I’m hoping someone knows so I can forgo crawling under the coach in this heat and gravel.
