Went to start my coach this morning and it would not fire. Turned over just fine and no smoke out the exhaust. It is a 2004 ISC 350HP and we have had no problems to date with it.

We have been sitting for a couple of months and have done that before with no problems. I had done a service and changed all the filters and I believe I started it up while we were stopped.

I couldn't see a solenoid on the fuel line that could be stuck.

Does anyone have any ideas of what I could look for or try?

Lindsey, since you have changed your filters while sitting I would think you may have lost your prime. The system has leaked down, try repriming it and see if she fires up. If it does fire up you will need to retighten all the filters to eliminate the leak. Good luck and best regards.

You may have a corroded ECM power wire on battery terminal. The heavy starter cables corrode less easily and therefore engine will turn over but the ECM is not powered up so engine will not start. Check for corrosion on wire spade.
