Just got back from a three month trip to southern California and had a few things owners of the 37C and other slide out kitchen models should hear about.
When I was in the high mountains of Southern California I was using an electric space heater. I had it plugged in at the outlet by the kitchen sink. After a few nights the outlet went dead and tripped the GFI. On my 37C the electric goes from the circuit breaker, to bathroom GFI outlet, to outlet in the City water outside compartment, back to a junction box in the wall between the bathroom and kitchen slideout,where it has two wires one to the kitchen outlet and other to the outside compartment by the front door. I put this in because it took me a while to find this wiring trail.
I found that most of the outlets wires are pressed into holding clamps except the outlet in the city water compartment. When I looked at the city water compartment outlet the complete plastic outlet and cover was melted and burned. This outlet was the standard outlet that the wire are secured in place by screws and one worked loose causing a short and small fire. Just luck that it only burnt the plastic outlet. I replaced the outlet and there was enough wire to cut off the burnt part and reconnect the wires.
This got long so I will do part two on next post.
