Spent 9 hours troubleshooting an intermittent leveling issue on a 1994 Dover in downtown Nashville

Turned out to be a corroded wire inside the selector tape that only lost connection when the car passed the 10th floor. Has anyone else found something dumb like that on an old relay board that took way longer than it should have?

That corroded wire in the selector tape is exactly the kind of thing that drives you nuts. I had a similar headache on a 1992 Otis where a bad solder joint on the relay board only acted up when the cab got warm from running all day.

Isn't it wild how issues only show up under just the right random conditions?
