Another inverter transfer switch question
I have a relatively new 2014 Fleetwood Bounder. With all the power off over the winter I reopened the unit, put the generator on and got nothing, no 120v electricity plugs worked, microwave would come on etc. Thinking the 2 6v batteries (in tandem 12v) were low (as they say they have to be fully charged) I recharged them to float stature, still nothing.
Circuit breakers all functioned, breakers on generators worked. I was getting power to 2 tv's and one plug in the bedroom?
I called Fleetwood and went over everything with them,circuit breakers, batteries, inverter on, no clear answer
I was going on a few day trip with the grandkids and assumed 50amp shore power would work. On our way I stopped at General RV where I bought the Rig to check out the situation, they found out that the generator was putting out the power but the transfer switch Surge guard 41260 was not forwarding the power on. Wires were tight on it. They were going to order a new one.
So the question is, am I missing something here or does a relitively brand new transfer switch go bad over the winter just like that?
Anything else I should be checking, looking at? Thanks in advance....
