Morning all,
I just got a 1996 Southwood Storm motorhome that came with a few delightful electrical issues, minor I think.
Issue 1. No interior 12v lights unless plugged into shore power or generator. With those it works fine. #2 may be related.
Issue #2. When on shore power only when it's plugged in there's a buzzing noise from the generator area that lasts for ten seconds or so then pops a circuit breaker. When I try and isolate the noise it MAY be coming from one of two solenoids that are mounted near the generator. I can't say they are the solenoids themselves buzzing but it seems to be near them. This noise is not present when the generator is working and the breaker does not pop. The picture is the solenoids next to the generator
I have a few other issues but this is the biggies right now.
Thanks,
Mac
