Hi, my 2016 Cambria was part of a recall To Torque the connections on the automatic transfer switch, they could be loose from the factory. I know mine were torqued to 30 inch lbs, I checked it myself before each trip. I?m Very familiar with this type of thing, I do industrial maintenance for a living (I work with Contacts on a regular basis.)
On my trip to Fl couple weeks, ago the lights in the RV started flickering and went out. I went outside to check the breaker I noticed smoke coming from where the electric cord goes to the automatic transfer switch, the whole switch was smoking. If I wasn?t there I?m afraid the whole rv would have caught on fire.
If you have an automatic transfer switch made by TRC model 41300 please check it. I checked with Winnebago about this and they said they?re only responsible make sure the electric connections are tight, anything after that is your problem - terrible customer service. Recall need to go further and replace those Defective switches.
