Lost power to 5 wall receptacles on recent trip. No 12v fuses tripped nor any circuit breakers. Turned every circuit breaker off then back on. Nothing. Powered down whole RV, turned coach battery disconnect off then back on. Still nothing. Did have a GFI trip earlier. Any suggestions on how to...

Hello, I'm having issues with my thermostat misreading the temperature in my RV. It seems to think it's about 90 degrees so the furnace will not kick on and when in AC mode, the AC will not turn off. Assuming the thermostat had gone bad I replaced it but the issue has not resolved. I have a duo...

I have a 2019 23dbh. It's parked next to my house and I keep a dedicated 30 amp line hooked up to it. Today I realized that I have no power to the lights, water pump, water heater, fridge or radio. All the outlets work, as does the microwave and the fireplace electric heater. I checked and...

BIL has this and has a wiring/ electrical issue. He has new battery isolators and management boxes. What prompted all of this is batteries that run down when setting. He has no wiring diagrams. FR said they would send some but so far nothing. Any ideas. Sorry if I don’t have all the...

Hey everyone my wife and I are driving a 1999 Dutchman express and recently blew two of the outlets trying to use a pressure cooker and a space heater at the same time. Only two of the outlets blew, the other four work just fine so we’re wondering if there may be a fuse switch/box that we need...

Happy Thanksgiving folks! Haven't been around for quite awhile. Want to do an electrical mod to my 2000 Majestic (27') Want to convert the electrical box on the driver's rear from the box and 20' shore plug to a 30aSmart Plug. Can I put in a converter of some kind to stop plugging and...

Just got this rig used, so no dealer tour/explanation of systems and we're coming from a popup, so bear with us! We're finding multiple electrical issues, some of which we know need repair, and others are probably just us not understanding how it's supposed to work. I'll start with this one...

Hello Everyone..🤗 Thank you in advance if you are able to help. I have a 2019 Forest River Sierra and I'm super new to the RV world. I'm not familiar with the lingo and don't exactly know what I'm doing. I fix things myself (I'm not afraid to get dirty) and I'm thankful for any advice given...

Hi all, I have a 2021 Rockwood Roo 235s on order. I’m going to upgrade the battery to a 200ah LiFePO4 and am wondering which converter charger is in the rig. Where is it located and is there any room to upgrade it in the current space? Pics appreciated. Also, I did order the 12v refrigerator...

Have a 2018 Forester 2801 GTS. Have a 110v electrical issue. Out of 8 electrical outlets on the coach only 4 are working. All are marked GFI protected. Have found one GFI ln the bath and it is functioning, but there must be another. Have checked the one outside, does not work, but not a...

Came to Md with the Wildwood Heritage Glen 327res. I've had electrical issues... 1) Plugged up to 50 amp full hookup site at campground... 1st indication something was amiss was when only one of the 2 indicator lights on the plug is on. No power. 2) Tried several different plugs at...

Hey everyone! I just got a 2006 fun finder X and I'm going to be living out of it while I work at a ski resort this winter. I'm not familiar with it at all and the previous owner didn't know to much either. I could really use some help. I've got some more specific questions about installing...

I'm stumped and would appreciate any suggestions and/or solutions. I've always prided myself on 'figuring out' and 'fixing' just about any issue with my motorhomes and now my Riverstone 5th wheel over the past 10+ years, but this issue has me stumped. I have a 2020 Riverstone 39RKFB pulling it...

We are having a problem when our 2008 13B when it is at home and attached to shore power by an extension cord. Sometimes there is no 120 v power to the outlets. I plug in a circuit tester in the outlet and it shows the ground/hot leads are reversed when this occurs. When I put a voltage...

So here's my issue. The other day a couple outlets stopped working. The next day, all the electrical in the camper had stopped working. The day after that, I found what i think is the problem. There had been a leak in the cabinet underneath the shower pan. All the insulation that i can see is...

Last time camping our jacks quit after unwitting. Panel lit up and would accept commands but error message stating operation timeout always showed up and jacks never moved. Talked to Lippert customer service and he helped me track it down to no power to the solenoid. Kudos to Lippert customer...

I have a Rockwood 122S popup A-frame trailer and would like to make a couple modification to allow for phone and computer use when boondocking. I'd appreciate any input or suggestions? We don't have any plans to use any appliances or TV and have never been to a campground with hookups. Here's...

I am looking for the electrical wiring diagram for a 2008 Sunseeker 2600. I want to install solar panels and replace the DC converter by an inverter/converter. Therefore, I am interested in understanding how the coach battery is connected to the DC distribution panel, to the chassis battery via...

Hello, my wife and I were in our Wolf Pup 16FQ camping and on day 3 she called me and said there was a beeping coming from somewhere. I went to the trailer and the beeping was coming from the inverter. Battery voltage dropped and continued to drop according to my TM-2030 battery monitor. We had...

Critters got in our 5er; I think a red squirrel got in through the belly pan. The electrical line from the inverter to our residential refrigerator has a short. Line is fine from inverter to where it disappears below the floor and into the "chassis". Thinking of trying to repair this myself...

I recently picked up a 2000 FWC Grandby that I've been loving. The furnace, however, has been a bit of an enigma. The fan starts, but the spark and fire of the propane heat has been intermittent at best. After some digging, I noticed that the anticipator wire on the thermostat was fried, enough...

2013 Forest River Sunseeker Class C motorhome - 30 amp service. Electrical problems just surfaced on a recent trip when hooked up to household 15 amp shore power (note all was fine when I was at my own home): 1) If on GFCI outlet - all is fine for a while (several hours) then GFCI plug will...

I recently bought my first RV (2017 Sunseeker MBS 2400 DW) and maybe I have a 5th graders understanding of electrical systems (apologies to any 5th graders who might be offended:) ....but I'm trying to learn quickly. Does anyone know of information available for: 1) A BASIC guide as to how...

I have two 30 amp cords wired into my camper... a 1995 Coachmen Royal 360RK 5th wheel that I live in year-round. My friend, who's not an electrician, wants to wire a 6 gauge wire, 240 volts, 90 feet to my camper's panel. We also talked about getting the wire off of the ground. I don't see...
