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!
Hey to the group, and thanks to all who participate.
Tighten up those wire connections routinely!
I am replaceing my WF 8955 electrical panel/charger this week and I want to share why.
The TT is in my drive and we are preparing for a weeks trip after being home for seveal months. I routinely...
Hey All,
Seems I'm on the way to upgrading the bulk of my HW296.
I'm going to install the following:
PD4135
BVM712
Victron MPPT 100/30 (assuming this is enough for 200 watts of panel)
Victron ~450 watt inverter (need help deciding on the specific model).
I'm fine with wiring the converter...
My husband changed the anode rod and the heating element in our water heater. Went camping last week and no hot water when using electricity. Switched to propane and it worked. What could be causing this? Also, inside the camper there is a button that turns on the water heater and next to it...
I knew I would refer the electric winch but it was standard on my pop up. It worked fine for about a year now it is intermittent. Push the switch and nothing happens. Sometimes if you work the switch several times it will start to work. It can be working then stop to tuck the canvas in and it...
Hi I’m having trouble finding out what’s wrong with my camper. One weekend afternoon I woke up to my ac not working in my camper then I noticed the lights wouldn’t turn on either so nothing would work besides the outlets and microwave. So I did a little research and called two dealer in my area...
I had to use the manual override to move my slide in. When I tried to bring it out, there was a loud bang. Now the motor shaft spins freely. This is a salem travel trailer. I think I I came in too far
Hello everyone I have had a few cars pull out in front of our motorhome and wanted to ask if anyone has experienced this and wish you had a horn that will get there attention. I don't want any air to function just straight 12v wire hook up please. Thank you in advance.
This weekend while camping we noticed we can't do much with out the generator running. With out the generator running not a single power outlet in the RV works nor does the tv or DVD player. Is this normal? Inside the stairs are two enterprise battery's. The only thing that works with out the...
Anyone ever replaced their camper water heater with an 110v house electric water heater?
Seems it should work for a smaller 26' camper.
Ours just got a leak in the tank, I'd like to replace with the electric tankless, so I don't have to worry about corrosion and anode rodes and such...
