looking for owners of 2004-2005 Pace Arrows

Does this happen only on shore power? If you disconnect from shore power, are the lights stable? It does sound like a ground issue, assuming your lights are all 12v lights, at least the ones being impacted. My stick built house had a similar issue with some lights going dim and others getting brighter, and it was a floating neutral coming on on the main feed from the street.

HI new Pace Arrow owner here.

Read this whole topic it did take some time but well spent. It was rather depressing it seems I might be doing a lot more repairs than the modifications that I was looking forward to.

I have a 2008 33V (W22) not mentioned here but here is my Question.

Having what appears to be a bad ground problem with interior lights that do not work and make other light circuits glow. I do not see any other 33V's here but Fleetwood's should be similar. To cold up here to crawl around underneath yet. Are the circuits grounded at or near the fixtures or at a common lug point and where to look for them.

It could be a cold issue as it seems to fix itself after the furnace has warmed the unit up or may be I have jiggled enough wires or fuses.

Now I have have had the unit for a month not used it yet, but have been trying to get familiar with the systems on some of the warmer days. I am finding the wiring kind of a rats nest but all newer cars and trucks are as well.

Because I am on the fence about staying with the gasser or trading to a diesel pusher.

In my Fleetwood all the interior lighting wire strings go to a fuse and grounding strip on a panel under a cover panel right next to the circuit breakers. (These pertain to the house, and the chassis stuff is under the dash and in the BCC).

Anyway, that panel then has a heavy gauge wire that grounds to the chassis.

But it's been awhile since I looked under that panel so perhaps those ground wires were for the AC. Worth a look though. If there is a ground strip, you might tighten the screws on the DC side.

Depending on the hill, normally it does good. Why do you ask?

No worries. Geico is covering it.

Dropped the motorhome off at the dealership yesterday. Now the adjuster will have to visit them and talk to the service manager to determine what has to be done to fix the water damage to the roof.
Hopefully they will cover all of it and not give me the "it's a maintenance issue"
