No power...

[grammynmaggie]

No power in my motorhome I have troubleshoot everything I know... the problem is in the motorhome not my power source.... any ideas... this lemon has just about squeezed me for everything I've got... feeling really sad here

It's frustrating beyond description, I'm sure.

Can you tell us a little bit more? Have you tried plugging something else in to the shore power? Maybe an electric clock?

Checked the breakers? GFI plugs? Do you have a surge protector/EMS?

Did the switch for "storage" mode get hit accidently? Sometimes (like when the Pottery Man thinks he is being "helpful" the switch get turned to the store position and things inside the rig don't work. Whatever it is I hope it is an easy fix.

Do you have a generator and have you tried starting it if you have one? Do the 12 volt light work? A tripped ground fault plug will shut off everything on that circuit. If the 12 volt lights don't work check your battery. That's all I can think to check.

Did you figure out what the problem was? Hope all working properly now

[grammynmaggie]

I tried everything including the generator taking it over this morning to get it checked out I will let you know

[grammynmaggie]

I can't seem to locate the power problem I left it with him who knows when and if I ever get it back again

[Acadianmom]

Donna, hope they can find the problem. I know you are fed up with all the problems. I think we have to be a special kind of crazy to put up with all the problems that show up. I feel lucky if I can make a trip and not have something break.

Well there was several loose wires and things like that they found but the main culprit was a burnt wire in a junction box where the power cord comes in the rig..

[Acadianmom]

Yep, had that happen one time. Glad they found the problem. That's something that could cause a fire.

Any idea what caused the burned wire?

Do you use some sort of surge protection or electrical management system?

Glad to learn they found the problem and it wasn't any worse. You may remember that I had to have a junction box replaced about 18 months ago. Mine was the one that supplied power to start generator.
