Hello, My name is Christopher and I am new to this forum and Rving alike.
so, I bought this 91 Bounder 34J, ford chassis,7000 watt onan gen 154 hours and 460 motor off of craigslist for $7000 with 43,000 miles.. Everything seemed to be good until we went camping. we noticed a burning plastic smell in the front of the rv after we parked at the site for the night. Upon trying to start it up in the morning it would not turn over. I was however able to start it with the aux start button, got home everything was working again, I go camping the next week and again nothing, Now my radio, tail lights and headlights along with the ignition wont work.
Checked batts, they are 13.6v, sanded grounds and batt leads fuses seem good.
and again I can start it using the aux batt button, I hit the main batt disconnect and can hear it clicking so maybe that is not the issue? Any advice would be appreciated. I am told by my neighbor its maybe a fuseable link? Anyone ever heard of this happening, and why it happened a week after I bought it lol. Darn Craigslist.
