We have a 2018 Forester 3011DFS Class C motor home. We also have an electrically-heated mattress cover which we enjoy for taking the chill of the bed in cooler weather at home. We would like to use it in the motor home but only when connected to shore power. However, the mattress instructions...

Has anyone had this happen… I think we had a power surge , we just bought a forest river it’s a 2020 and when I try to use my microwave it runs my front ac unit and turns on my fire place if I turn it off it turns them both off . If I turn on back ac unit it turns on front ac unit and fire...

Just picked up my new 228ltd. When I close everything up between trips, should I turn off both breaker switches for rhe 120volt power? Or will it not matter since the counter flips down and has a cut off switch

Hello I'm new here and in desperation since I'm trying to change the junction box because it was corroded. I took a picture to re-wire the junction box the same way. All the cables are connected the same way it was with the exception the battery cable that as you can see I didn't notice that it...

Hello, I have been trying to get the electrical Schematic for 2015/360DS. My slideouts, stairs and other electrical are not working correctly. I have had the converter replaced with no change.

We purchased a 2021 Forester 3011DS in April of this year. For the most part, we are dry camping where we use the propane water heater to heat water. This past weekend we were on shore power and hooked up to city water source, and the electric water heater was switched on the panel to heat the...

I have a 2021 RPOD I picked up in new June. On the last outing (number 5) my electric tongue jack when from quiet and smooth working to suddenly loud, noisy and increased vibration. Even with no load on it. I checked the battery wiring and battery is fully charged. Who makes this jack if you...

Anyone familiar with the Forest River RPOD electric jack? Mine was new in June and this week went from a quiet electric motor sound to a very loud racket when I hooked up from a short trip. I tried to upload a short noisy video but couldn’t. Not sure where if any there is a lube spot. Could it...

I have a 2014 forest river wildcat 237ck. I am setting in my driveway hooked up to 50 amp house current. I plugged in and unplugged the power cord several times (i was having problems with my "Wally") the last time I plugged it in I have no lights in my living room. bath, or bedroom. all of...

I want to determine if I have tanks or electrical under the floor of my pass through storage 2020 Hathaway 38 dbrk. I want to secure a pull out cargo storage tray to the floor and not damage anything below that floor. My rigs belly is closed. FR had no schematics for electrical or plumbing to...

I have an issue that developed over time and am trying to chase down where the short is. The mirrors, cameras, and fans (I think) don't work. I tried to replace the fuse but it keeps popping. I tested the chase side of the leg, and sure enough, it grounds. If anybody has any experience or words...

I noticed on my last trip my left blinker stopped working. I checked the bulb and it was fine, then hooked my other truck to it, not the one I tow with normally and the blinkers were working, so the Tundra I tow with for whatever reason is not sending the left blinker signal. Any ideas what...

It appears that the bulb is shot on my lighted water pump switch. I haven't torn into it yet, but am I correct in thinking that the bulb, diode or whatever is sealed in the switch and I'd have to replace the whole switch? Also, can I get a generic replacement at any auto parts store ?

Good morning all, Long story short I was hoping to get a few small things fixed under warranty but my dealer isn't returning my calls and the only local "non dealer" repair guy here in Mid Michigan isn't taking any warranty work at the moment. So, it looks like I am stuck addressing my issues...

Hello all, been a while since I posted a question. Put a SoftStart on my Coleman Mach 15000 AC in August. On shore power, works like a charm. Got a SUA2300i generator from Sam’s Club for Father’s Day. Finally tried it on my Phoenix. Used my EMS and a ground plug, did not want to run with...

In August I Was preparing my 1918 Georgetown V - 36b for a trip. I hadn’t used it since April and when I left it everything was fine. I had been in it periodically and kept battery charged. When I got in it I flipped the light under the tv over the kitchen sink the ceiling lights in living...

Had one of these installed by a qualified electrician and it worked perfectly on shore power, however while boon-docking, no power from any (tried 3 separate ones in our group) generator. No micro, lights, plug outlets, etc. Back home and it works as it should plugged in to the house. Called...

I have all the parts on the way to finish my DC power install. Before I put everything in, would you take a look and see if there is anything I should consider changing? Especially WRT wire size and breakers. All wire runs are really short (<18") except the runs from the solar panels...

Hello. I recently purchased a used (2020) E Pro 12SRK. The previous owners professed a lack of understanding regarding all things electrical so I ha e a few questions I can't seem to find answers for in the forum. 1. USB ports use while boondocking. It appears only the one USB port on the...

I know this sounds totally stupid but I have to ask because I am at my witts end. I recently purchased my 2nd travel trailer, I bought a 2019 cardinal luxury 3700 FLX 42 foot 5th wheel. I purchased it used from a consignment dealership. I have been searching now for three days and can not...

In my 2017 Forest River Sierra 378FB, we started smelling an acrid electrical smell yesterday. It seems to be strongest from the washer/dryer closet in the front bathroom at the nose of the trailer. I’m not powering anything from the plug in that’s located in the closet, and haven’t detected the...

Thanks all so much for the help on my last post, I found the water heater! I read the thread with six posts, all set to start, but the stickers inside the heater area are all worn or torn off. I attach a pic (my fifth wheel is a 2004). The black strip in the middle with two circles is labeled...

Brand new Sandstorm 272GSLR, on our first trip to a campground with full hookups I turned on the electric water heater. When I flipped the switch our accent lights in the living room turned on. That’s odd. Turned it off and checked the accent lights switch, works correctly. Turned electric water...

Hello. I should probably buy a surge protector for my trailer for when I am connected to 30 amp shore power. Any recommendations? Also, I'm a total newbie and am not exactly an electrical engineer. I don't have a fundamental grasp of electrical circuits. I have no clue what an inverter is...

The middle left jack won’t go down. We were prompted to manually retract all jacks, hubby is ready to trash the brand new vengeance toy hauler. Help me please!
