    Took off the panel and pulled wires to relay and problem was fixed. No dash light but no buzz, that’s a win

    Many years ago we saw one of our friends coach listed for sale on RV Trader or similar. We called and asked why they were selling. Turns out they were not but someone had stolen all the pictures they had posted online and pretended it was theirs. In another case we found a coach that looked like a good deal. We were not close but expected to travel in that direction. We had great conversations until we said we would be coming through that town the following week. After that, no communications! That confirmed the coach was not really there.

    Well that relay supplies power to the dash light and that is it according to liberty. I will pull fridge back out and pull the fuse. The buzzing drives me nuts

    Added 2x100ah 48v SOK batteries and 48v 5000w inverter to double my house power to 20kW. Now my 48v inverter system feeds into my 12v system giving me 10kw inverter power. Eventually will swap the 12v out completely and have all 48V.

    Installed 4 new AC units so I’ll have 2 Furrion 15.5k, 2 Dometic brisk 2s 1 13k and other 15k, then 2 original Dometic penguins. Unfortunately the brisks use CCC2 and the penguins use CCC controls so I now need aanother microair. And one of the furrion thermostats doesn’t work so need to order another of those. So back to only 3 working ACs. Had to raise up my solar panels a couple inches but they all fit pretty well. Heading for campground tomorrow so hopefully next week will get everything ordered and installed so I can play around with testing all the different types.

    Regardless of what a converter might do regarding circuit protection using a 60 amp breaker in a UL listed temporary power outlet is not only a violation of the certification of the outlet because the receptacles are rated only for 50 amp per leg, but our power cords are designed for 50 amp max.

    Each converter does its own thing, so each coach owner needs to understand what their converter has done for electrical circuit protection. I can say this based on decades of Prevost forums I have never ever read of an owner tripping a 50 amp breaker in his coach, but many posts regarding tripping shore power CBs. I find and believe that to mean the converters have special CBs or it is an incredible circumstance where only shore power breakers trip.

    1. Fridge is bolted in

    2. cleaned fresh water tank and all plumbing lines with clean water

    3. installed mud flaps back on after painting mounting brackets

    4. determined one cruiseair needs a new compressor

    5. Installed booth dinette

    6. purged front a/c tube, it backed up into the bus. I got that working again. Checked for the other tubes, but I am not able to find the vent for them.

    7. Drained radiator. Confirmed everything cooling related works

    8. Put in axle and filled dif, it took 5 gallons and didnt dribble out. Need to make a decision to pull some out or leave it.

    9. Found out my front air bags are ripping and will need to replace.

    10. Torque steer and tag axle nuts.

    11. Added window layer to block light to keep temps down

    Bill, that is what i was thinking, My Country Coach has breakers at the end of the Shore cord, and the output leg of my generator. This would trip before it got to anything to cause damage. Maybe Liberty does it differently?
