Re: Running wire from 5th wheel hitch to basement area
That is what I’m considering. When we traded for a new 5th wheel, I purposefully bought one that did not have an on board genset after fighting an Onan on our previous rig. No matter how religiously I ran it or used Sta-bil or ran the set dry each time, I had to replace the carb every year. They were non serviceable and were a couple hundred bucks a piece. The one draw back is we’ve discovered that we miss being able to leave the fridge running enroute and we like to pull over for lunch and make a quick sandwich in a cool trailer. I have a great 4500 portable genset that I use pretty often that I’d like to use. On this Denali, the converter is up front in the basement as is the shore power plug so it won’t be a long run.689Views0likes0CommentsRunning wire from 5th wheel hitch to basement area
I'm interested in running a 30amp cord from the bed of my truck through the hitch area in to the area beneath the front bedroom bed, in to the basement area of the 5th wheel. Is access to this area generally obtained from the top (underneath the bed) or from underneath by taking the outside covering off from around the 5th wheel hitch? This is on a 2017 Dutchmen Denali.1.8KViews0likes8CommentsRe: Can I add a wall thermostat?
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I knew this had to have been previously encountered. I'm going to take a look at the Dometic ducted install kit and also launch a call to Forest River to find out the extent of the factory prep in my XLR. I will use the AC mod relay method as my fall back. All the best to y'all.270Views0likes0Comments
