RE: What are these? And do they need replacing?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I would agree with finding out just what circuits they are protecting and maybe purchase some spare breakers might be prudent.
So, you never change your oil or do any preventative maintenance at all???? Because if it ain't broke don't fix it?????? :h Doug
One of your totally predictable and inane comments.He probably right in your case.
You actually look at something that seriously damaged, turn around and say leave it? Amazing....

RE: What are these? And do they need replacing?

I'll disagree, it's clearly broke, just because it doesn't show. You simply don't treat electrical components like that and expect them to perform. If they're rusted externally, the crimps are bound to be compromised, and that shell has likely leaked moisture into the breaker.
But it's your coach, so listen to who you believe

RE: Killed my solar panels.......

You don't need new diodes.
Just remove them then and soak overnight

RE: Killed my solar panels.......

Don't assume that it has to be visually burned or smell like smoke to be dead. You can easily wipe out any silicon junction on the controller by reverse polarity. It's also quite possible that the board has fuses on the logic board protecting the electronics that don't look like fuses at all. Killing a panel might be possible but unlikely.

RE: Water transfer pump

Dunno what you have so I'll toss this one out from a thread a long time ago.
If you have an anti-freeze position where the pump draws from the 1gal containers, drop that siphon into the potable water tank.
I'm sure there are other ways, but next I go to the outside shower with a hose jumper built to go from the outside shower faucet and into the street fresh tank fill.
Start pump and open the faucet. Takes me around 2 mins to drain a 7gal portable potable jug.

RE: the worse built motorhome you can think of

Gee, I lived with a P-30 chassis for 17 years and had no issues whatsoever. Didn't think much of the 454 exhaust manifolds tho.

RE: is new camper actually new?

It's not new because it was built last November? You haven't noticed that new cars and some trucks are sold 6months+ in the previous year? RV's are no different and often much worse.

I'd go for exhaust/ manifold bolt as well. That thing looks like it's been really hot

RE: NORCOLD 1200 LRIM tech question...UPDATE 1

Looking at that closer it looks like the fire/ flare might have come from the relay.

RE: NORCOLD 1200 LRIM tech question...UPDATE 1

Well, clearly it burned up..
I assume the lug was on the AC HT blade? Got a good picture of the spade lug? Looks to me like the lug/wire crimp went high impedance.
If thats all it is, and it were me, I would wash the board down with Alcohol and an acid brush, dry, re-crimp, and try again
