Those breakers on the inverter......I went through my initiation at night when it was raining. Had to get the books out and study the wiring diagrams before realizing where the breakers were located. The problem is fixed now. I installed two 1/2 sized breakers in the inside breaker panel

and removed the GFI from the original location and replaced it with a 2 pole 2 position center off switch and moved the GFI to the other side of the bed. Now when in a campground my AC does not pass through the inverter.

Why in the world were all recepticalls on one circuit. You know the wife wanted to make toast while the coffie was brewing. Yes that can blow the breaker also. Cured that problem also. Ran new wiring from the microwave receptical to the underside of the cabinet near the sink, Those coffie pots have just the right length cord and that circuit has a 20 amp breaker. It is easier to remember not to microwave while doing coffie than not using any two recepticals at one time. I do beleive in newer coaches there may now be 2 circuits, I hope

As built our coach (Intrigue 2000 Gally Slide) had heater hoses with joints {requiring clamps} run between the frame rails above the ceiling of the basement compartments. During construction when all is open they put 2 "T" connections in the space above the water tank.
Guess what leaked. Yes on the day I picked up the coach there was antifreeze on the ground at the middle of the coach. I won't get into the fix but the joints have been moved to a different and accessable location. The hose clamps needed to be tightened, but it was impossible where they were located. This was also addressed by engineering I hope
