RE: 2005 Keystone Montana 3400RL Electrical Issues
Good chance that you do not have full 50-amp connection to the rig.
Are you plugging into a 50-amp receptacle or using and adapter. If you are using an adapter it could be bad.
Another possibility is a connector on cord is bad.
RE: Charging batteries with a small generator
Need to determine the charge rate of your converter. Many have converters rated around 35 ampere output. This in many cases is not sufficient. Adding a separate battery charger isn't going to help much as the normal safe charge is around 10 amperes.
While boondocking refer should be set on auto. When genset is running, the refer would run off 120-volts AC.
1000-watt generator maybe a little small.
My thinking changing the converter to say a 50-ampere output would help.
RE: Rte 212 from Rapid City to Garryowen
I have traveled US 212 a week or so ago. I see no reason you would have any troubles. I picked it up at Alzada, left it at Broadus
RE: Military Campgrounds
Many retirees are abusing the 14-day rule and stay at some facilities for several months. They move from one site to another at some bases and the base commander allows it.
RE: Kwikee Step
The magnet needs to be adjusted to tell the step to retract.
As for the step retracting issue, I would check the connector for the control box and the two ground connections.
RE: 2005 Norcold refrigerator -- shore power not cooling
Since unit doesn't work on lp and marginal on electric, test the thermistor.
Thermistor testing
Potentially bad circuit board. I prefer Dinosaur Electronics replacements..
RE: Broken Leaf Spring
The springs should be marked. Markings should be on the right end of axles.
After identifying your axles get the exact replacement for all.
You could upgrade some if all other components are done.
RE: House Battery Disconnect Not Working
Diagram shows as a 40 amp which would be power to slide.
The battery disconnect provides power to all items in chassis control box.
RE: House Battery Disconnect Not Working
That means the switch or wiring is issue.
Remove the switch from the wall to gain access to terminals.
The both sets of end pins should have 12-volts DC. Switch should have opposite corners of switch jumper to reverse voltage polarity.
The center two pins should have 12-volts DC when switch is pushed.
see page five for basic wiring.manual
I didn't know Aloha still existed! Raised in Beaverton!
RE: House Battery Disconnect Not Working
You are having a helper push switch and hold for short time to get reading?
With meter across small terminals, you will get either positive 12- volt reading or negative reading.
RE: Battery Disconnect Solenoid Fuse
RV lite is a supplier of RV custom products part number RVCV1002. RVC- 1002Appears to be a magnetically held relay
Before throwing money at it, disconnect small wires from relay ant try it again. If fuse blows, then issue is switch or wiring.
Fuse doesn't blow it is in relay.
