The other night I noticed a hot electrical smell, similar to hot bakalight. I was unable to locate the source before it dissipated.
When we came back to the RV from playing tourist last night we found the AC breaker tripped. I reset it. After running the AC for awhile the hot smell returned...
Backstory.
2008 we purchased a 5500 Onan. Never had a problem with generator in 6 years.
2016 we swapped it into our new 5th wheel. In new rig we can run both ACs, washer, dryer, whatever. No problem.
Except if the batteries need charging.
We have 4 deep cycle 12V batteries, which will...
Virtually every time I initially plug in to the pedestal, and then when power comes back on after a power failure (which happens in Florida plenty), the breaker pops that protects the passenger side outlets of my 378 MH. This circuit is also for the two TVs, one in the living room and one...
Hi,
We're first time RV owners and full-timers, we live in our 1997 Conquest Ultra, so this has really been a learning experience. (I am so happy to have found this forum!) Of the hundreds of questions and issues we have, the most pressing at the moment is our roof air conditioner as we live in...
We have a 2017 25BHS, the 30 amp post breaker keeps tripping, it has happened at three different parks, not running the microwave when the air
Is on the only external thing on is a fan in the screen house is this normal? We've got about 45
Days left on the warranty.. any ideas? Also the cord is...
Good afternoon. I have 2007 Ultra Lite 8288 SS and had a question about power. Is it just my unit that cannot run the A/C and the microwave or is that common? I have also been experiencing my main circuit breaker tripping more often even without running the combination. I do not have...
We have a 2017 2401S Forester MBS that we've had for just over a year. On our last three trips out, we've been having problem with the campgrounds 30 amp circuit breaker tripping whenever we use our roof top air conditioner. It will run from 10 minutes to 30 minutes then trip the breaker. The...
Anyone know where the breaker is for the outlet in the compartment in the front right above the dash..... The one in front of the passenger seat???? I looked at all the breakers on the side of the bed and it's not there.... I've lost power to that outlet......
Got a puzzle I need help with. Our TH has been having power issues. We replaced the two batteries with new 6V batteries (one was bad) but still noticed power issues. They wouldn't last 24 hrs. We have converted all the lights to LED so knew it wasn't lights.
I hooked up a charger to the system...
The A/C in our Flagstaff 2011 V-Lite has tripped the breaker several times. I had the A/C checked out and the repairman said it was okay. Question: do RV circuit breakers "wear out" like residential ones? I.e., do I need to replace the breaker after it trips many times? Thanks in advance for...
I am replacing my 12 volt circuit breaker that is between the battery and the converter on my 2006 FR Surveyor (model SV210). My problem is that the old breaker has no amperage identification on it. I was told by a local RV repair center that it should be a 20 amp. I would just like to get the...
We bought a used '06 Zinger. we towed it home thinking everything worked just fine. But plugged it in and only the microwave shows life. I reset all of the breakers including the Main. Checked fuses which all were good.
Why would just micro work? no lights no slide - am I missing a...
I could have sworn that I saw pictures of the circuit breakers and fuse panels for a unit like mine as I read through the forum posts. Despite using the search function, I have been unable to find those photos again. I know that there are several locations (driver's seat, etc.) but the...
So in the process of diagnosing an electrical problem over the weekend, I was looking at replacing some of my breakers. Long story short, all the breakers in my trailer are fine, it was the 50A breaker on the CG power pedestal that was causing the trouble.
Anyway, I took a pic of my panel with...
The water heater breaker keeps tripping. I have the switch on at the unit, on inside at panel, I have hot water from the propane I just can't keep the breaker on for the electric. Any ideas what is causing the breaker to trip?
Hi,
I just purchased a 2017 Microlyte 25BRDS. Sometimes instead of using the heater in the trailer (due to noise levels) I will use my portable heater. It is very small. When I also operate the coffee maker it will blow the fuse and require me to flip the breaker to turn the lights back on...
I have a 2013 Kodiak Express 283BHSL with one slide that is not working. When I press the button I hear a click, then nothing. It has the Swintec system. I believe the motors are good, but no power is getting to them. I checked the fuse box/breakers inside the trailer and they are all ok...
Help guys! My customer can not find the breaker box on his 2000 Chateau Travel Trailer, 30 W or 32 W? We have told him over the phone all of the places we know to tell him to look and he says he can not find it! Is anyone familiar with this older TT?? Thanks!!!!! Kelly:eek:
Any thought on why fuse for cook top range hood and lights in master bedroom of a brand new 2017 Wildwood kqbts keeps blowing? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I have a 2008 378TS that consistently pops the breaker when leveling in the auto mode but never in the manual. Also, in the auto mode at least 1 of the jacks never makes contact with the ground. The fluid level is correct and i've run the auto calibration several times. Nothing helps.Anyone come...
Can someone please tell me where to find circuit breakers in Sunseeker 2400S?
Outlet over sink has gone dead. Did use toaster oven and probably flipped breaker. Can't find anything about it on Forest River online manual.
When driving down the road, when my A/C cycles off and then tries to come back on it trips the breaker. When stationary, I have no problems running off the generator. Could it be a loose connection at the service panel? Or on the Onan generator?
Hi folks, my first post, we just took possession of a nice 2008 Surveyor SV291.
My two first jobs are to restore 12 volt power, and then to replace the vinyl floor that's split in a couple of locations, but the sub-floor is 100 percent.
On 120 VAC everything works great but on 12 VDC nothing...
