    trailer fuse blowing

    There is a switch for A/C on my fuse box, and when it has blown in the past, the switch has gone off and then I just turned it back on. This time, the switch didn't go off, but instead the entire 30amp trailer fuse blew. The fuse is outside of the trailer. And none of the breakers blew.

    trailer fuse blowing

    I don't know how old the batteries are. I bought the trailer used last year. How can I tell how old the batteries are?

    trailer fuse blowing

    My entire 30 amp trailer fuse blew and I'm not sure why. None of the breakers were tripped, the fuse in the fuse box outside blew and I had to replace the fuse itself. I had the A/C running on high and a few lights and a few smallish things plugged into outlets and fridge on electric (which...

    Fridge fail

    The door used to seal really well, it was hard to open it. Over the past few months, the fridge has been much easier to open. How can I fix this?

    Fridge fail

    I agree, I definitely want to diagnose the condition. I don't think it ever switched to gas bc I the "check" light has been on for weeks (if not months). How can I diagnose the check light? Also, when I say "one side" I mean one end of the fins in the fridge has no frost and the other end is...

    Fridge fail

    I'm going to defrost the fridge now and then put less inside it afterwards. I definitely want to make sure I don't do permanent damage to the fridge. Thank you everyone for all the info above. I think I got lost, I'm a little confused about what to do next, what are the next steps to diagnosing...

    Fridge fail

    My fridge just recently started defrosting on one side and leaking onto the floor (when I open the fridge door). You'll see in the pics that the metal fins in the back of the fridge are frozen/frosty on one side and melted/wet with condensation on the other. The condensation on the melted side...

    outlet keeps blowing

    I do have an actual fuse. I have a power box that has (2) 30amp actual fuses (for two rv hookups) outside of my trailer. My rv is plugged into a connection to one of the fuses. I have a circuit breaker box inside of my trailer. So my setup is: 30 amp fuse outside plugged into rv. Rv has breaker...

    outlet keeps blowing

    I have an outlet (GFCI) that doesn't seem to have a breaker on it. Whenever it blows, it blows the fuse for the entire trailer and I have to go out to the electrical box and replace the fuse. I have been running a heater on that outlet and it was fine for a month or two, and then I charged my...

    water leak in door

    I have sealed the entire door with silicone. It doesn't seem to be coming in from around the door. It seems to somehow be leaking into the door frame and then dripping down. But I can't figure out how it's leaking into the door frame.

    outlet damage?

    I had a radiant oil space heater plugged in like this: heater > surge protector > extension cord > outlet. I almost had a fire between the surge protector and the heater. I'll be throwing those units out (both were really old). But I'm concerned that this event may have damage the outlet. What...

    water leak in door

    I resealed all the joints. And the wall doesn't feel wet from the inside. Could it still be running down the wall even if it doesn't feel wet on the inside?

    water leak in door

    I ended up putting a little metal piece above the door and it seems slightly less leaky. But during heavy rains, it still leaks.

    Going away

    I'll be going away from my trailer for almost 2 weeks. What are some things I should do to it so that I can leave it alone for two weeks?
