2004 International CE200 Diesel Bus Won't Turn Over
Good afternoon everyone,
I recently decided to join the Skoolie community and purchased my very own bus last week. I drove it home about an hour just fine and have already began the demolition process. So far, I have managed to remove all of the seats, ceiling panels, insulation, and flooring. Along the way, I had to disconnect a lot of various wiring harnesses in the ceiling to get the ceiling panels down. Today, I felt as though I needed to start the bus to let it idle for a bit since it has been off since I brought it home a week ago. It won't start. I insert the key into the ignition, turn it to the ON position, push down the brake, and turn the key over but nothing happens. The dash lights are on so I assume the 2 batteries still have juice. There is an audible tone coming from under the dash/ steering wheel area that was not present before. I thought maybe it was some sort of theft/ child safety feature related to the doors or emergency exits. I reconnected all of the wiring harnesses in the ceiling, verified the rear exit door is latched, all emergency exit windows and escape hatches are latched, and that the school bus door is closed with the manual lever locked into place. The audible tone is still present and the bus does nothing. Did I disconnect something to cause this issue or are the batteries just dead? Again, I can see the parking brake icon light up on the dash when the key is switched ON so I assume the batteries are fine. I can't find any information online which brought me here. It could be something so simple - I literally drove it home a week ago.
Thank you,
Chris
EDIT: I have identified the audible beeping sound is coming from a wiring harness/ device attached to the shaft of the brake pedal. It is constantly beeping with the key in the ON position. If I push the brake pedal in prior to turning the key over (Like you would a normal car) the tone continues to sound but becomes more muffled.
EDIT2: The device beeping is a HELLA 12v Buzzer. Other identifying numbers are 5AA
