    Testing a 50 amp male plug?

    Thanks everyone. I have not tried turning on the heat pumps etc. when it says inverting to confirm loss of ac. I am going strictly by the magnum remote saying inverting and not charging when this happens.  The strange part is it will be on charge mode and then when I check back normally next day...

    Testing a 50 amp male plug?

    Thank you for your help. I now understand that there could be a voltage drop if something is on in the MH.

    Testing a 50 amp male plug?

    Pre-purchase inspections

    I think you could buy on contingency. Meaning you place a minimal amt. down (say $500) to show your serious . However you do not purchase until your inspector has completed their review. Any purchase agreement can contain a contingency but it must be clear and in writing. Good luck.

    Class A Motorhome Comparison

    All manufactures have good units and bad ones. More money doesn?t mean you will have better results, but the odds are better. I have more good things about Tiffin than the others. I would be inclined to look more at that coach, if the floor plan is what I wanted. Best of luck.

    How often to drain air tanks on diesel?

    Hi all, I have a 2017 Newmar Ventana LE 3709 class A diesel MH on a Freightliner chassis. One of the things I find confusing is if and when should I drain the air tanks?

    Crazy leak at base of toilet (with macerator) when shower is used?

    Turns out leak is coming from two additional holes in the base of the toilet (one on each side). They are about 4 inches further back from bolt holes. I found it by recreating leak by flushing and running shower. Then removed bolts and as I started to lift toilet and tilted it back fresh water...

    It did stop. I never noticed a regen symbol on dash but it could have been there. Most likely that is what was happening. Thanks all for your thoughts. CP
