Exterior outlet on Winnebago

[jspringator]

I have the beginning of delam under the exterior outlet on my Winnebago. The outlet appears to be of an unusual design that I can't find anywhere. Does anyone have a link to a new one?

I tightened it up, but I would feel better replacing the whole thing.

The stainless steel clothes pins work.

Here is an Amazon link.

UPDATE. The weather cover I ordered did not fit. I taped the cover, off, painted it, and ran a good sized bead of caulk around the top and sides. I used 3M4000 UV. Later, I plan to mount one of those flaxible plastic gutters over this outlet, and eash window.

I'm also trying some stainless steel clothes pins to attach to the end of each gutter. I'll do another post after I see if they work.

My Winnie is in storage right now so I cannot look at my outlet for name and number but look in Winnebagoind.com for the resources tab and download the parts list for your rig.

We seldom use our exterior outlet and have not had any problems with water. Just follow Winnie's procedures and you should be fine.

Better caulking around the box..

That is not why I'm opposed to 'em.. I'm opposed cause they have a nasty tendency to melt down if you draw more than about 10 amps.

Got any suggestions for a more water-tight replacement?

That is a "Unibox" or Quick box outlet. Very common in RV's. and becomming more common in houses. and in my personal opinion JUNK. but that is a more detailed post than I wish to make now.
