electric

Is it safe to run 12 volt electric lines alongside the gas lines? I just finished installing tank heaters to my Salem. I ran the wiring along the right side of the frame, which seemed easiest as that is where I decided to place the switch cluster inside the trailer. I drilled into the floor of...

I am hoping maybe someone here has some thoughts. I have had an intensely crazy week as my guy suffered a major stroke a week ago and I am living out of my Palomino Revolve EV2 in my mother in laws driveway. I've been getting back from OHSU late and debriefing the family (only 1 allowed visitor...

I have seen many post and news stories of RV fires, they seem to mostly originate in the fridge compartment. I spotted a fairly new product that seems like it would be perfect for fire suppression in an RV or home etc There is nothing to do to make it work, no pins to pull, nozzles to spray...

Ok so I have been having electrical issues for months now and really need some help. Currently my motorhome has a house battery shut off switch and before I had the battery replaced last summer if the switch was off then there would be no power into the motorhome whatsoever. Now even if the...

Hey. I just recently purchased a 2021 Forest River Wildwood XLite 28VBXL. I made a mistake when running power at my parking location and connected it to a 30 AMP double pole breaker instead of a single pole. Pretty sure after lots of searching and looking that the problem is that this messed up...

For some reason when I plug a ceramic heater into an outlet in my bedroom it ends up tripping a breaker.... 750 watts or 1,500 watts - still trips the breaker..., I can plug two heaters up front and no issue.... Any ideas????

I recently picked up my (first) new trailer and I'm trying to wrap my head around how the 12V system actually works. 1. If I'm plugged into shore power, where is the 12V coming from to power the 12V components in the trailer? It appears that opening up the battery disconnect switch has no...

Is it safe and/ or ok to step down 50 amp to 30 amp, then 30 amp to 20 amp110/120 volt using adapters? I want to run a space heater in my trailer, but not pull amps thru the trailer . Plant to use a separate extension cord for the heater.

And about where is it going to be on the XL? Pretty sure its on the driver side but wondering about how far back from the front door? Just trying to build in my 50amp circuit in the garage. Thanks in Advance

We have a 2018 Forester 3011DFS Class C motor home. We also have an electrically-heated mattress cover which we enjoy for taking the chill of the bed in cooler weather at home. We would like to use it in the motor home but only when connected to shore power. However, the mattress instructions...

Just picked up my new 228ltd. When I close everything up between trips, should I turn off both breaker switches for rhe 120volt power? Or will it not matter since the counter flips down and has a cut off switch

Hello I'm new here and in desperation since I'm trying to change the junction box because it was corroded. I took a picture to re-wire the junction box the same way. All the cables are connected the same way it was with the exception the battery cable that as you can see I didn't notice that it...

Hello, I have been trying to get the electrical Schematic for 2015/360DS. My slideouts, stairs and other electrical are not working correctly. I have had the converter replaced with no change.

We purchased a 2021 Forester 3011DS in April of this year. For the most part, we are dry camping where we use the propane water heater to heat water. This past weekend we were on shore power and hooked up to city water source, and the electric water heater was switched on the panel to heat the...

I have a 2021 RPOD I picked up in new June. On the last outing (number 5) my electric tongue jack when from quiet and smooth working to suddenly loud, noisy and increased vibration. Even with no load on it. I checked the battery wiring and battery is fully charged. Who makes this jack if you...

Anyone familiar with the Forest River RPOD electric jack? Mine was new in June and this week went from a quiet electric motor sound to a very loud racket when I hooked up from a short trip. I tried to upload a short noisy video but couldn’t. Not sure where if any there is a lube spot. Could it...
