    12v DC not working

    I have a 2000 skyline aljo. I can't get any power to the outlets when running off the battery. I can't find a inverter only a magnatek 6300 converter. All the fuses and breakers are good and getting power. Everything worked before I left for camp and when I got there I have nothing. When plugged...

    A112S 12V Fridge not cooling to outside

    I noticed that on my A122S the 12V only fridge is not cooling to the outside, but just has space around it, cooling into the cabin. Has anyone noticed adverse performance or extra heat inside from the fridge?

    Magic Chef 12V

    Hello I have a 2021 FDS with dual 100amp lithium. 200w solar panel. I believe I am having an issue with my fridge but not sure. When boondocking everything will run fine for a while. Battery % will drop to approx 70 on cloudy days but then comes back up to 100% when sun comes out. However...

    Parallel 12v batteries

    My 17jg wolfpup came with two 12 volt, 64ah, deep cycle batteries, wired in parallel, from the dealer. The system seems to work pretty well but I have yet to install an inverter to run the few appliances we think we need while dry camping. My question is since I have two 12 volt deep cycle...

    2022 Riverstone 39RKFB. Woke up this morning with very dim interior ceiling lights. Everything was working perfectly fine last night. While trying to figure things out I also discovered that the hydraulic slides were totally dead. Not very slow, no trying to move and stop, totally unresponsive...

    12v TV is pretty much worthless

    We have come to realize that having a TV in our camper (small 12v Furrion) is worthless. We never get any channels over the air in most of the places we camp and rarely get a cable feed (except the occassional KOA). And the sound is down right terrible. What we do is stream on a laptop using...

    New 12v cooler to supplement 3-way fridge propane

    Our 3-way fridge has a horrible record of not working on propane when we need it. So we decided to get a 12v cooler box that runs easily on solar and battery. It gets down to -5F but we'll mostly use it for 35F refrig to supplement the 3-way when propane isn't working. Too bad low draw 12v...

    12v 6.67amp CPAP - want to create battery system to power it

    My CPAP sticker says it is 12v 6.67amp rating. My trailer is older and set up for 120v power all the time. Now I am looking to build something for car races when I am dry camping and I can’t run the generator at night. I would like to stay DC, so if I get 12 or 6 volt batteries, what type of...

    Dash 12v Accessory Wires

    Just bought a 2018 32DS and am in the process of moving in from our old Winnie. I was looking for a spot to wire in a ham radio and happened to notice a gray and white set of wires just barely hanging down from below the center console to the left of the front passenger. They have a butt...

    Can I pre-cool the 12vdc fridge with the pu closed?

    Hi, On our old 97 Starcraft pu I'd plug the refrigerator directly into AC a day before we left. During transit the pickup's 12vdc kept the chill until I switched to propane at the cg. The 176LTD refrigerator is 12vdc. Does the AC/DC converter work with the pu closed? Will I need to bypass...

    12v refrigerator ratings

    Is there enough usage history for 12v refrigerators to say one is better than the rest? I'm looking to replace my Dometic 2652 6 cu. ft. with Dometics "direct replacement" Dometic 8CU FT 12V DC COMP REFER DMC4081. We don't boondocks and run 2 12v deep cycle batteries so I don't believe the 12v...

    Weird 12v Electrical scenario

    Went to hook up the trailer today so I could move it up a few feet to load it for trip next week. Turned my cut-off switch on and no 12v power, cycled it a couple times still nothing. No lights in trailer, no 12v anywhere. Checked battery voltage, 12.7v. Hooked up 7 way plug and had power (all...

    No 12V Power

    Hi All, I’m trying to figure out an issue with the power on my 2019 Palomino Puma Fifth Wheel. Basically I think we aren’t getting power to the converter from 12V. We had it out two weeks ago and all worked. We’re boondocking (2 weeks ago and currently) and are using a generator for shore...

    Amazing build quality - 12V outlet pulled out of thin panel wall

    New barely used Sunseeker 2350LE. I've probably used the 12V outlet over the bed like 5 times total. The first 4 times I probably braced one hand against the outlet while pulling the plug out, since I expected something like this to happen. This time, I forgot, and even though the pull force...

    12v refrigerator shelves

    Need some help on my refrigerator. I'd like to adjust the shelves but can't figure out how to release the catch at the back. I know it slides but what do I need to do to get it to slide. I tried adding a photo but service at campground is horrible. Thanks

    Need to add 12V outlet

    Hi guys, I have a Jayco Redhawk 22A and I need to wire the 12V out of the battery for a 12V outlet. I could drill a hole on the step to wire the 12V out of the house battery or I could use a light switch... I could also use the dash 12V cig outlet but I am worried that the outlet is not...

    12V outlet powered by ceiling light switch

    Hello! I have my 2022 Rockwood 2280LTD on its maiden voyage. It has the 12V outlets in the ceiling by both ends, but the power to them appears to be cut off when I turn off the master switch for the ceiling lights. Is there a way around this? I’d like to have a light/fan on after turning off all...

    6v vs 12v battery question

    Hi I have a 12v Agm battery that needs replacement, and I’m considering 2 6v batteries to get more amp hours with roughly the same cost. (Ideally lithium but I’m trying to keep costs down, so lithium is off the table). The question I have is would my current charge controller in the trailer...
