    Can I ask why my earlier 2000's wildwood fifth wheel camper would have completely filled the bathtub by itself, obviously by backing up through the drain, however I never use it, the gray tank has been empty for almost 4 days, I don't shower here because I don't have hot water. I barely use gray water in three months. But it is also in the floor vents! The heating ducks on the floor have several inches of water and the entire entry area, steps and vanity/bathroom area are completely soaked that there's over an inch of water in the carpet! Do you know what could possibly be causing this? There's not a leak in the roof or anything that would've done this, and we just replumbed it three months ago with pipe and fittings! Don't understand.

    Thanks to your video I was able to locate the breaker that was causing my 12v system not to work. I have a 2011 Rockwood Ultra lite 8280WS 5th wheel. After searching all over the camper and not finding the breaker I went to clean out a birds nest in the actual hitch and located what appears to be a junction box and low and behold the breaker that was tripped. Thanks Again

When I pull the light switch the headlights come on no problem but the dash doesn't light up. I tried rotating the the knob to see if the dash light would come on or make it brighter to no avail. I am not sure but I think the dash lights are controlled by the headlight switch. Please tell me what your think. Thanks Bob, San Antonio..

    • @theaustinwilt
      @theaustinwilt 9 месяцев назад

      You will need an electrician to install a circuit breaker with corresponding plug to use the 30amp plug. I would just get a 30 amp to 20 amp adapter and that allows you to plug rv into standard wall outlet. Just make sure you don't draw too much power and trip the breaker.

      I would think it would have to be something between the converter and the battery then. Sometimes the main fuse coming off the battery is hidden but that's definitely odd.

    We are about to get a Stehl Tow Dolly to pull our Honda Civic. The RUclips gods must knew and pushed your video up. We are transitioning from a travel trailer to a Holiday Rambler Class A. Looks like once you get some practice it will take 15 minutes to get loaded up. Any regrets going with the Stehl?

    • @theaustinwilt
      @theaustinwilt 9 месяцев назад

      The stehl was great. Definitely no regrets. Towed well and never had any issues. Only "negative" is that it can't tip up so it does take up quite a bit of space but it was never an issue for us.

    • @TheGrayLifewithJimPearl
      @TheGrayLifewithJimPearl 9 месяцев назад

      @theaustinwilt we ended up with the master tow. we have put over 2000 miles on the dolly so far. Not too crazy about the cheap Chinese tires, but so far they are doing good. Put a TPMS system on them and keep them properly inflated. Got a video out of my trying to use it for the first time. Stop by if you want a laugh 😃

    @KevinCoop1 Год назад

    Many of those 40 and 50 amp breakers have a very tiny re-set button on them. For those with Class C & A, if you run your battery way down and start your engine to charge it, you can be putting over 50 amperes into the battery. With enough time, the breaker can trip and cause the same issue. Sometimes hard to find. Thor has a special box made and put it under the hood. Good luck! Kevin

    • @theaustinwilt
      @theaustinwilt Год назад

    So, I have my caravan plugged into the house socket, it’s not running off a battery. There isn’t even a battery, it’s just plugged up. Iv got power to all the sockets and heater, but the 12V DC isn’t working, there’s no power to any of the lights, fridge ETC. sometimes it works, then it will switch on and off. Any suggestions?

    • @theaustinwilt
      @theaustinwilt Год назад

      If you're on shore power with no battery then there has to be a AC to DC converter somewhere. Seems like it is somewhere between those connections. Are they any fuses inline anywhere? Or could be your converter may be going out if it is really intermittent.

    • @lukewalpole6207

      @@lukewalpole6207 I don't know a whole lot about those systems but the fact that its intermittent seems like it could be a bad converter or there is something wrong with the wiring somewhere or there is too much power being drawn at times. Is it a 20amp hookup or larger? Safest bet is definitely have a professional look at it since a power problem can definitely cause a lot of issues if not resolved. Good luck!
