Shore Power Issue

05 Pace Arrow 37C, started my generator while on shore power, now I've lost 1 leg of my 120vac. Everything fine at the plug, at the main inside the coach 120vac on one leg, 33vac on the other, checked to neutral and ground. Gen set powers everything fine. Any ideas where Fleetwood ties the shore power to the gen set power? It's got to be a connection issue on the bad leg,I don't feel like running a new service yet! Any help would be great.
  • Thanks to all for the info, transfer switch on a 2005 Pace Arrow 37C is located under the closet drawers on the right side. It was a simple open contact on the shore power relay, a shot of contact cleaner and works like new. Thanks again for the help!
  • Try to follow the power cord as it goes inside the coach. Xfer should be the first box the cord goes into.
    Mine is in the bay that the power cord stows in.
    If you decide to open it up, double check both shore and gen power are off!
    Good Luck

    The above caught my eye. Behind the cover over the circuit breakers, you will probably find a small circuit board for your Intellitec. Pull the onboard fuse, leave it out for approx. 60 seconds and replace. This will probably solve the problem. Also gives you a chance to tighten all wire connections while you are in there.

    About page 6 in this pdf is a pic of the circuit board showing the fuse I'm talking about. There is also a troubleshooting section.
  • In our 2007 Bounder 35E the transfer switch is under the computer desk in the bedroom. You have to remove the drawers to get to it...
  • A friend has an older Damon,and the transfer switch was under the rear closet. JM2¢...

  • Sounds like the transfer switch is partially hung up (one leg) in the generator position. JM2¢...
