Recently bought a 2016 FWC Hawk Shell with many optional upgrades I wanted, but unfortunately it didn't come with a power inverter. Many of the 1000w pure sine wave ones I'm considering have a ground wire post; what are you folks connecting your your inverter ground to? For additional...

I bought the trailer brand new January 2022 and have taken it on 3 trips in that time with approximately 800 miles on the trailer. In the past trip, I started to experience electrical issues. When connected to my generator(Predator 3500 Super Quiet Inverter), the surge protector and the LED...

Had a pretty significant electrical short in the first bay behind the driver where the inverter and other electrical items are mounted. A junction box with four lugs was completely fried. The wires connected to the four lugs are about 14 gauge. I have attached a picture. Anyone know the...

I have a 22 17MKE and am in the process of purchasing equipment and materials for adding a 3000va Victron inverter/charger and upgrading the solar charging system. I believe my unit is an early 22 model and have not seen the inverter prep sticker on my unit. Is it still possible that it has the...

Having some electrical issues with my Momentum G28 Travel Trailer. While on shore power, everything runs fine. While on Generator it seems my desktop trips the Nearest GFCI "behind the tv". I've unplugged everything and checked each outlet with a heater that uses about 10 or 11 amps. didn't have...

I have a '15 Forest River Vengeance 38L12 50amp, on shore power at an RV resort. Woke up this morning and the power on my living room a/c , microwave, and living room television are not working. Bedroom a/c, garage a/c, and almost all of 120 plugs are working. Checked breakers at the pole...

I have a '16 stealth toy hauler. The fuel system fuse blew, I think because the pump gears expanded and seized. I replaced the gears and the fuse. When I turn on the fuel system the light that shows power to the system immediately shuts off and I have no power to the fuel system still. It...

When i push the slide out control, either in or out, it will start then stop. if i release it will continue again and stop, they will eventually close, but have to continuously push and release button. Is this the motor? relay? where do i find the motor? easy repair or do i need to take in...

For my old Forest River Berkshire 34B, FR provided schematics and such to me. Here is a high level Power Point presentation to facilitate to the owner knowledge of their RV. Does the Dynamax division have such documents to share?

I'm looking for help again electrical issue.. some time ago I posted and asked for help about when a12volt load turn on, the lights flicker even while plugged into shore power and the battery seem to be draining( Like a loose connection) following all the help from you folk I clean the ground...

Hello fellow Rvers, I'm not sure exactly where to post my question, so my apologies if this is not it the right sub-forum. Here goes... A few weeks ago, I upgraded my headlights from regular incandescent bulbs to LED bulbs. Easy to do, worked as expected. The only issue I had was that the...

I had an accident yesterday. I dropped a wrench onto my battery leads. It made a connection and sparks flew like crazy. It was on there about 5-6 seconds before I could get it off. It actually melted the negative lead on my battery. I have been trying to check everything and determine what...

Hi I am new to the forum. I have a Hilo 2001 22 foot trailer. I bought the trailer locally at the end of May. I re-laminated the wall by the shower that had been damaged by an ice dam. When I got the trailer home it would only go up with jumper cables attached to the battery. For 2 months...

I've been reading posts here for quite a while and noticed guys giving electrical advice, tips, diagnosis, and troubleshooting really really know their stuff. I have a 2011 Forest River Sierra 292rl and I've been getting these power intermittant power shut downs. I was getting them before summer...

This is my second trip in my 2023 Isata 5. First trip was great and on 50 amp shore power. We are boondocking this trip and this thing has lost its mind. I am running the generator and it will run for 30 minutes or so and then either die or just kill power and then reset. About half the time it...

I have a 2017 Apex 232. I have no power to my awning, microwave or outlets. My fuses are good. Breakers are on. GFCI is good. Battery is good. Any suggestions on where I need to check next? AC, Slide, Refrigerator all work. Thanks.

Moved the camper from point A to point B, and installed new (single pole) 30 amp service on existing main box at property I'm at. Fridge recept has no power, and 3 recepts in bedroom (1 on each wall, and one in center TV island) also have no power. All breakers have power in and out. All fuses...

My wife and I love our new 2023 Rockwood Freedom 2318G! but I wonder why the electrical wiring was design in such form where ALL THE LIGHTS are controlled with the ONE SWITCH by the door. This totally defeats the purpose of the portable lights and fans that come with it to install on each bed...

My new LiFePO4 battery arrived! I measured before ordering and when I saw it would fit inside the cabinet of my 2017 Fleet (front dinette), I figured all was good. But I didn't think about how it had to go through the cabinet door at an angle, and turns out there isn't enough clearance. Obvious...

Recently bought a used 2018 255Rb Tracer. During our first outing i was dewinterizing and noticed the water heater electrical junction box was opened with the wiring hanging out.Looked like the box cover was broken. I told myself I would fix it later. Well I forgot and went camping again and...

I just bought a 2023 Shamrock 19 3 weeks ago. I'm fixing many electrical deficiencies with the electrical wiring, and was wondering if anyone would have an electrical diagram/schematic for this unit. I was under the trailer this weekend and found several resettable breakers and no wiring...

Does anyone know why the 110 shore power circuits work when the battery is disconnected? But, if the battery is connected, they don't work. The specific circuit (leg) in the 110 breaker panel that doesn't work is the one that handles the refrigerator, water heater and converter.

I only want to do a very simple project of replacing a bathroom fan switch with a timer switch. I turned off the breaker to the bathroom lights (2 wall lights on one switch) and adjacent fan switch. Both switches are now inoperative (no power). However, when I put the Klein tool on the switches...
