Help! I received bad advice and wired my 30amp plug with two hots and one ground. When I plugged it in the GFI tripped on the electrical plug in the power bay under the motorhome. I have since wired a new plug using the 50amp cord. Output power is correct with two hots, one neutral and one ground. I have absolutely no power in motorhome. Generator causes the power switch to trip the contact points. Still no power in motorhome. Shore power I have to push the switch in. Still no power at the circuit breaker panel. I have checked all the GFI plugs that I can find. When 50 amp cord is plugged into the receptacle on the motorhome I need to physically push it in and hold it for the power to get to the power switch. I have the correct power on front end of contacts. I have the correct power on the back end when I push in the switch. Still now power to the circuit breaker panel in the bedroom of the coach. The coach is a 1994 Safari. In the power bay I have a power switch that has the generator, inverter, and shore power in. It is also hooked up to a power surge box. There is a GFI plug in the bay with a large plug plugged into it. Inverter will now even power the television. The inverter hums like it is working. I believe I need at least a new power switch box (two contact points, and two circuit boards in the box), I don't know if I fried the power surge box. I will have to look at the receptacle where the shore power hooks into the motorhome (probably some issues there). Any idea why no power to the circuit breaker. Is there another fuse, relay, or circuit breaker between power switch box and circuit breaker panel? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
