We were camping in the Lancaster, Pa area during a storm and lightning hit about 20 feet from our camper. All power went out in the camper and I thought it was the campgrounds power but found it had tripped three breakers in our motorhome. I reset them and everything worked fine except the monitor panel was lit all the time like I had pushed the test button but still seemed to show levels.
Went to to dinner after the storm and found that many things in our car did not work, no power steering, stability control, no speedometer ect. but it still ran okay. After getting to the dealer for a check, the lightning had fried 5 computers in the car at a cost of around $5000. The only visible damage was to the drivers side mirror which looked like Jack Frost had done his thing to the glass.
