Title: Aquahot Electric light wasn't lit.
Post by: Jeff & Deanna on July 06, 2011, 07:20:40 am
Just pulled into a park last night and noted later in the evening that that Aquahot Electric light wasn't lit. Switch was on at last location and working, trip to here was only about 5 miles. Was on generator at last location, on A/C here.

NONE of the switches turn on. Checked breakers, all okay. Any thoughts or ideas?

My rig is a 98 4200.

Jeff. I'll bet you knocked the 12v master switch off.

12v master switch is still on, I guess it is time to empty out the bay...... Well at least I can find something I haven't seen in a year or so... hahaha

Jeff

ps - Thanks for the help guys. Still looking for an answer.

Well Guys, I pulled everything out of that bay, my Aquahot is in the middle of the coach, checked the fuses up near the front and the second one was popped. Replaced the fuse and all is well.

Thanks again,

Jeff

Jeff,
Isn't it great to fix something without having to open your wallet?

Jeff,

That b good news.  Now, personally, I always like to find out what I did to pop that fuse.  These machines are very forgiving if you pay attention to the warnings.  Very seldom have I found a problem that did not give a warning...Strange noise, reading high (or low). etc.. As usually, FWIW...

In your case, did you have the electric and diesel switches on and at the same time have the generator running when you plugged into 50 AMP?  Many different scenarios.  Good luck..
