My son-in-law and daughter borrowed our 2011 Winnebago Tour this weekend to go see the Michigan football game. A little while ago he called and said there was smoke coming from the center of the motor home. Long story short, the house batteries caught on fire. The fire was put out, the fire department removed all six batteries, 5 of which at burnt to a small pile of plastic and lead. After everyone had calmed down, I told him to turn the chassis switch back on and try to start it which it did.
Two questions, is there any reason they can't drive it home tonight?
Also, the local motor home repair place just replaced all six AGM batteries about a week ago. Obviously doesn't seem like a coincidence. Possible causes??? Batteries hooked back up incorrectly? Defective battery shorted out? What are my talking points with the service manager on Monday morning?
Thank you.
