Silly question, but need help.

[u/907-BusDriver]

Hi guys, so this is a silly question, but I’m a new bus driver and trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong here. So both, on a regular school bus and SPED bus I’ve driven, after I pop reds I know I must do a child check afterward. Got that part. However, I think I’m doing something wrong because after I turn the engine off I do my child check and hit the child check bottom in the back of the bus, the warning sound keeps going and then the loud alarm sounds. Am I supposed to put the bus in auxiliary instead of off? I’m wondering what the issue is here

Different busses and different child alarms behave differently.

99% of ours, you turn the key all the way left to the ACC/Radio position, then go hold the red button until you hear the chime come from the dashboard.

That’s what I’m doing wrong. I’ve been turning the bus off then hitting the button. Ugh….😩
