Needs some help: Yesterday I was troubleshooting why there was no power to the awning switch. I removed the switch cover (picture attached) and checked the connections on the switch to make sure all were snug, which they were. I pulled the power connector off the awning switch and placed one...
I got to thinkin’ (I know, dangerous),
What are my solar panels actually producing?
Broke out the old Harbor Freight multimeter and took readings. Unplugged the cable from my two 100watt CIGS panel on my TT. 3PM, fairly clear day. The two panels are paralleled so I just measured the combined...
I recently had my 4-12 volt batteries replaced with 2-6 volts. My electric retractable power cord is not working Unless it is plugged into the outlet at the site I am at and that leads to my 2 questions.
First question: Is the only way to get the cord out Is to pull it out and roll it back...
Good morning, everyone.
I'd like to thank pgandw for his help in my first thread. I ended up pulling the trigger on a 2019 21TBHW from a seller who took immaculate care of it. It was kept in a pole barn most of its life, so it looks and feels almost brand-new. I drove 340 miles to make the...
Hello all. I’ve done a few searches on the subject and there’s a lot of opinions and people telling folks what to buy, but I don’t see any links to resources to learn solar power. I really want to understand how to decide what to get/install on my own. I don’t have the first clue, for example...
My 2022 Forest River power jack will not go up or down and I can get the manual to work either. It was power to it but will click after I hold the button a couple seconds. Also the fuse on the inside isn't blown. Any ideas?
I've got a 2017 FR3 that we redid the kitchen on. So this work has already been done and I can't go back and reference it.
I had to replace an outlet in the kitchen by the microwave as I tore the whole area out. I disconnected from shore power, flipped off the breaker, verified nothing would...
Hello, hoping one of you can help me get back up and running. 2021 36k7
I’ve got 50amp shore power plugged in. But no power to anything. I’ve checked all the breakers I know of and nothing is tripped. I had the coach unplugged for a week or so and turned off the battery switch. I came out...
The wife and I have been driving cross country from Oregon to Connecticut. Staying at a campground in Elm Creek Ne. when we lost power. Obviously I checked all the fuses and breakers, I changed my cord from the shore power to the RV still nothing, I did confirm that there was power from my...
I recently got my Onan 4000 generator repaired. As I was checking it out I saw that even though the gen ran fine, I had no 120V current in the RV. I checked and found I was getting 120V out of the gen and into the Power Switch TS30, but not into the RV. Shore power works fine. I assume its the...
Hi folks,
We live Full Time in the 42FSKG and plan to be away from the RV for a bit and trying to research is something exists that I can remotely monitor the RV power status using a cellular method. Why? Because will be across the country.
I've seen Micro Air but doesn't capture that.
We...

The breaker panel is right below...
I have the original Powerwinch model #P55000 and it works like a charm but the plastic gear cover has deteriorated. Anyone have any luck replacing this with a newer model cover?
Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and brand new to campers. I just purchased a 2009 Salem 312bhbs. I don't ever intend to use it unless its hooked up to shore power. However, so far, it seems that the converter runs non-stop when I'm hooked up to shore power. I hate the noise of the...
Hello,

On Friday, everything worked perfectly. Saturday, I loaded it up and towed it to a campsite several hours away. On arrival, all 3 slides, the power awning, and all...
Hi. On the road. 2018 Forester class C. First night hooked up to shore power. Batteries depleted to 11.5V over night. Drive 3 hours. Then measured with multimeter at 12.6V. I waited an hour to check to allow for surface charge. Hooked up to shore power again. Overnight batteries now down to...
New RVer here, still learning and a lot I do not know, with a 2022 Sunseeker 3010DS, second owner, has GoPower solar.
From what I can see, there’s a chassis battery under the hood and 2 flooded batteries under the side entrance step. I plugged in the battery model number and it pops up as...
Hi all, just wondering if I should leave my fridge on or off when I am not using it ? I have a 2023 Forest River Wildwood FSX 260 RTKX with the 200 watt solar package with dual group 27 batteries. I live in Florida so its very hot in the camper when I am not using it, Thanks for your thoughts.
I have a 2023 R-Pod 196. Went to install my Furrion rear view camera today and there is no power to the mount. It works fine plugging into the in-vehicle power source but not when installed. I checked and all lights are on to the trailer but there is no power light on the camera when...
Hello Group,
My ‘18 SS MBS 2400ws is tripping my GFI when plugged into my garage 110 outlet. It’s never done this before and I have changed nothing in the rig other than adding a Dinosaur Electronics water heater circuit board.
I’ve been working with FR roadside assistance support for the last...
Hello. I have a 2017 Forest River Forester 3011DS. When I plugged into a 30 amp RV outlet I heard an arc and lost all battery and AC power except strangely the microwave has power. Any resets I am missing? Already tried resetting all breakers in inside breaker panel
I'm going to post this here as researching the topic I have never seen any info on this. What I propose to do with the solar I've installed (HQST 40 amp MPPT controller, 4 LifePO batteries, 4 100w Bogue RV panels on the roof and 2 portables to move around in the sun) is to wire a 30 amp outlet...
Hi all - I have a 2021 2608BS Rockwood travel trailer. Just got back from a 2hour dive home and noticed the power jack no longer works (worked at camp a few hours ago just fine) I am hearing a clicking on the 20amp breaker that is installed to the circuit board of the power jack. Sounds like the...
