Trail-lite 211 b+ transfer switch location
I have a 2003 trail lite r-vision 211 motorhome that I just purchased. The generator wouldn’t start so I had a new carb put on and now it runs. When the mechanic tested the generator he turned on the air conditioner and once the compressor kicked on ac power was lost. He did not have time to dig deeper into the lost power so I thought it may just be a breaker issue. I brought the rv home to troubleshoot it myself and found that now my shore power also doesn’t provide any power to the unit. DC still works but no AC from either the shore power or generator. I had shore power prior to this issue. The air conditioner has worked on shore power before so that unit isn’t the problem. My thought is it is likely the transfer switch but I can’t find it. I followed the wires under the RV from both the shore power and the generator but get lost in the wiring as it goes behind the frame. Does anybody know where the transfer switch is located?
Thanks to everyone that replied!
I found the transfer switch and have bypassed it by putting a 30 amp female end plug in coming from the generator into the shore power storage area.
Now to use the generator I just have to plug in the shore power to that plug in when I want to use the generator. This is how many other RVs are set up that I have seen and I prefer it that way because of simplicity and less electronics to have to rely on.
The transfer switch was on top of the power converter. I couldn’t see this until I removed the drawers above it. I never did that until your suggestions because I could see the back of the power converter from under the sink but the switch was hidden from the back.
