While investigating empty spaces in my TT, I found that a hot wire was not even screwed into a 20A breaker. It was just bent in such a way as to make frictional contact. That's a fire waiting to happen even in a stationary home.
Pulled the breaker and found why it was that way. I couldn't get the screw to move so that it would accept the wire. It was frozen in place from the breaker manufacturer. So instead of picking up another breaker, some Forest River worker decided to take the easy way out and put me at risk. I took the breaker to my small town dealer's service manager and even with his tools, he couldn't get it loose either. Would love to meet the guy who installed it ftf.
