Inverter
Has anyone ever removed their inverter/charger? I have a 2000 Horizon Itasca Class A and had problems with power switch, etc. Got shore power switch replaced but my inverter is not putting out anythin...

Yup, I have... Thankfully I have a back up converter (Actually the inverter is the back up charger)
UNPLUG, and do not start generator
Open inverter connections compartment and identify wires
Using a Sharpie label the IN and OUT wires
Remove NEGATIVE lead from batteries
Now you can disconnect.
on the 12 volt Positive wire tape it off or otherwise insulate it to insure no shorts 12 volt shorts with that size wire can be downright impressive, also dangerous.
On teh 120 volt side connect the input wire to the output wire same color to same color (Black to black, white to white, bare to bare) and insulate connections.
That's about it, other than the physical removal of the inverter.
Box it, send it to manufacturer, (GET RMA first) get new one ,take out of box and reverse procedure.
