Getting ready for a trip and found the fridge would not work on electric that outlet is out. Upon further review outlets in the BR are all out, Dinette outlet is out, outlet over the sink area is out. Where do I begin? :banghead:

I’m looking for info about the clearance lights on our Geo-Pro 2019 - the small, round, amber LED lights in the upper corners on the front of the trailer. A picture is attached. Can anyone tell me when they turn on – is it only when connected to a tow vehicle with parking or headlights on? Can...

Hey there, So I am in the process of installing the LifePo battery and I need to move some components around. On the drivers (left) side of the trailer aft of the tongue is a number of automotive circuit breakers and some of them also have an inline fuse. See picture From these CBs there are...

I just received a complimentary Ting sensor from my insurance company State Farm. it has been back ordered for so long, I actually forgot what it was supposed to do. Here is the description: https://www.tingfire.com/how-ting-works/ I think I am actually going to put this in my trailer (which...

New Dutchmen Rainier 2009 owner. We tripped a circuit breaker and now even after resetting it there is no power to the kitchen outlets. Is it possible the breaker is defective? Are replacement breakers available anywhere? Is there some other action go restore this circuit?

Does anyone know the coating Dynamax / Freightliner puts on the electrical connections? Seems to work great and never corrode. Looks maybe just primer? —john

I’m at a loss here. Hooked the camper up at home for the first time this year, just to a 110 plug to start to get things going for the year. When I flipped the main breaker there was a pop somewhere in the electrical panel. All other breakers were off. Now the only thing that works is the 110...

With my 2021 176SE, the batteries have drained to 1.5V after just a few months of outside storage. My battery guys say there has to be a drain for that to happen. What are the proper steps to take with the electrical system for winter storage?

Ok so I need to pick some of your brains. I just purchased this 2021 Cherokee Arctic Wolf 5th wheel . I purchased it used from an auction as a theft recovery.

Hi all, The battery on my 2150 RB Imagine isn’t charging when the camper is plugged in. The battery is new so not sure what the issue could be. Any suggestions? Thanks! Kathy Mixer

So for whatever reason Forest River put a one socket outlet behind the master and and one in the master closets where the Wi-Fi max is installed. That set up is all good if you never want to add anything. Does anyone know if you can replace the single outlet electrical outlet to one that has two...

I have a 2020 isata 5, when I turn on some of the lights or water pump you can hear the power disconnect or be restored to the ceiling fans, it makes a chirp noise. Also sometimes the water pump will randomly switch off, and so will the exterior lights. This all happens under battery or...

Brian, In a reply to a post back in 2018, you commented that your IT dept was working on a directory structure for the thousands of documentation files applicable to Dynamax products. Has that occurred, and if so, where would I find the electrical schematics for my 2020 24FWM?

FWC Lithium Manifesto Ok, lately especially, my inbox has exploded with questions about DIY installation of lithium batteries into Four Wheel Campers. We’re talking 5 new inquiries a day. There is a lot of info about it on here already, but I thought maybe it would be helpful if I put it all...

I'm curious how many burn-out, toasted electronics have been prevented by an add-on "protective device" A caveat: The fact the "bells and whistles" on your device went off are not to be counted as a save. The manufacturers have to make you feel good spending your money, so they make sure the...

Our 5er is parked in our back yard for the winter. I have plugged it into several different outside outlets in order to keep the batteries charged. My problem is all these outlets are on GFI circuits and they keep tripping. They don't usually trip right away and may even go for several days...
