RV Electrical Problems
RV Electrical Problems
By Michael Tripp
All the years I have been working on RV’s, I have noticed one mistake that almost
Every one who buys a RV does. They almost always forget that corrosion starts on the negative side of any electrical problem.
Look at your batteries. The acid starts building up on the negative side first. Everyone
Almost always starts messing around with the positive wires. Chasing positive wires can be good if a mouse likes eating positive wires. But for the most part, you should look to the negative side for the problem. Here is a trick I use to fix some electrical problems.
If you have a Recreational Vehicle and your some of your outside lights are not working try this. I like to take a spray bottle, a small one is best. And put some white vinegar in it and keep it behind the seat of the truck. When I have a clearance light go out, I take off the lens cover and squirt it a few times. Make sure your power to those light is on.
Ok, Now squirt the light bulb it’s self and the screws holding the light bracket on. Now,
If your light bulb is good and your power is getting to the light, you should see a flickering starting to happen. All the sudden like MAGIC, your light will come on! I noticed that a lot of older Motor homes have this problem all the time. The RV is left out side most all the time. And bad things happen when you’re not even using it. Carry your bottle with vinegar, and it can make you a happy camper.

This is a fun blog to read. I am actually looking for a Phoenix RV repair so this is interesting to read. I like how it is written.

Thanks so much for sharing this with me. I love how you went over this with me step by step. My family and I have been wanting to use our RV for a while now. http://www.bellroadrv.com
My friends and I think it would be really fun to take a road trip this summer. My one friend has an RV but says it has been giving him electrical problems. We don't want to take it if it's just going to give us problems the whole time.

My wife and I are taking a trip with our kids to Utah to see our my parents. I want to get my RV engine checked over to make sure it is in tip top shape. I am sure any auto mechanic can check out the RV, however, I feel it might be best to find someone who is specialized in RV's.
