Hello, I have a 2021 Innsbruck 189DD. I am in the process of adding a battery monitor, hoping to get the wiring from the two external 12v batteries to a convenient location inside the camper to mount the display (maybe to where the existing control panel is?). Does anyone have any...
I have a 2017 Vintage Cruiser and am replacing the tanked water heater with a tankless water heater. The new water heater has a gas line input, cold water input, hot water output and 4 wires. Two for the electric and 2 for the controller. See pic attached. I have 2 questions.
1) What is the...
Does anyone have a location or drawing for the A/C source power selector switch? Our rig is a 98 Gulfstream SunSport with a 30amp shore power connection and Generator.
Traditionally, with the old Coleman Mach A/C units, one had to run the generator for both front and back A/C units to be used...
We have 2019 Solitude 310K. All of our 12 volt lights and fixtures stopped working on battery, EXCEPT for my hydraulics and inverter. My batteries are fine and are running the inverter and hydraulics. But all other 12 volt items are not working. When I plug in the converter, everything...
Hello all

Recently bought a 2016 FWC Hawk Shell with many optional upgrades I wanted, but unfortunately it didn't come with a power inverter.
Many of the 1000w pure sine wave ones I'm considering have a ground wire post; what are you folks connecting your your inverter ground to?
For additional...
I have a 22 17MKE and am in the process of purchasing equipment and materials for adding a 3000va Victron inverter/charger and upgrading the solar charging system. I believe my unit is an early 22 model and have not seen the inverter prep sticker on my unit. Is it still possible that it has the...
Having some electrical issues with my Momentum G28 Travel Trailer. While on shore power, everything runs fine. While on Generator it seems my desktop trips the Nearest GFCI "behind the tv". I've unplugged everything and checked each outlet with a heater that uses about 10 or 11 amps. didn't have...
My new LiFePO4 battery arrived! I measured before ordering and when I saw it would fit inside the cabinet of my 2017 Fleet (front dinette), I figured all was good. But I didn't think about how it had to go through the cabinet door at an angle, and turns out there isn't enough clearance. Obvious...
I have a 2022 Grand Design Momentum 397TH and have a traveling question.
I have a travel car freezer able to run off 110v ac or 12v dc. I use this in the garage for a drink cooler and a overflow for freezer goods.
I am looking for a hookup I can use in the garage that will be live while...
We're looking at some table options on our new 5.0 with bench seats. The current placement of the breaker box is not a great location, and it will likely be a problem for one of our ideas. I am thinking of moving it from facing out under the bench, to being just inside the bench and facing...
Hi there! Recently picked up a 2012 hawk from four wheel campers. I am just going through the electrical and am wondering why the kill switch on my circuit breaker doesn't seem to do anything (turn off over head lights, ect..). Any thoughts?
Hello everyone, I have a 2004 Gulfstream Sun Voyager, and the roadside plugs are not working. Where I can get the diagram to see from where the issue comes? Thanks in advance.
Also, the slide out on the driver side when we are on the road, start open it is not too much but either way, question...
I have a Gulfstream Cresendo 8390 CRW.
I have a Dometic PowerPro awning that does not have any power to the control box. This is located on the curbside next to the entry door.
I have checked the fuses in the compartment below the drivers seat. It shows 3 fuses for a power awning in fuse block...
I've got a call in to my installer but won't hear back until tomorrow. So I'm just throwing this out there to see if anyone has a suggestion for something I've not looked at yet.
When we arrived at our campground late this afternoon and plugged in/hooked up, I didn't immediately check the...
I have a 2018 Solitude 344GK and the front battery compartment caught on fire and burnt almost all the wires, the hydraulic lines and so forth. I tried to get some schematics from Grand Design and they said they don't have any schematics for any of the electrical or the hydraulic lines. "I don't...
OK so.
I have a 2004 Outfitter Caribou 6.5 sitting on a 2020 F150. I am having some trouble wiring the truck to the camper to charge the battery while driving.
The camper is fairly old and was purchased recently from the original owner who was charging the same way on a 04 Tundra. So I am...
We lost power to the main AC, part of the living room outlets, and microwave. The bedroom AC and outlets, and the fridge are still working.
The surge protector/voltage monitor at the pedestal shows normal voltage and a draw of 5 amps on one leg and 0 amps on the second leg. Blue light on...
I am sorry if this isn’t the place to post I just don’t know what to do.
We recently got a portable A/C Unit because our rooftop A/C stopped blowing cold air. Contacted Grand Design and they have given us some money to put towards a portable A/C in the mean time until we can have it serviced...

Hi all,
The battery on my 2150 RB Imagine isn’t charging when the camper is plugged in. The battery is new so not sure what the issue could be. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Ok, lately especially, my inbox has exploded with questions about DIY installation of lithium batteries into Four Wheel Campers. We’re talking 5 new inquiries a day. There is a lot of info about it on here already, but I thought maybe it would be helpful if I put it all...
I’m ordering the imagine 22MLE which will be pre-wired for an inverter. My plan is to make it simple and plug my shore power cable directly in to the inverter (via adapter) and then turn off the breaker for the A/C and the converter. It looks, however, like the converter is on the same circuit...
We ordered and received our 5.0 with no exterior shore power connection. We had ETI wire in the normal 25’ power cord and they just ran it out the passenger side rear access hatch for electrical hookup and testing. Now I’m ready to install a SmartPlug and am wondering what the best hole saw...
