Your 1993 American Eagle's Onan generator producing only 12-15 volts indicates a faulty rectifier bridge (part CR21) or suppressor (part RV21). The correct replacement parts are 305-0696 for the rectifier bridge and 305-0703 for the suppressor.
When your RV converter runs but won't charge batteries, the issue is usually a faulty converter charging section, blown fuse, or bad battery connections. Start by checking the DC fuses and testing voltage output from the converter.
Depends on dryer voltage. 120V dryers work on 30 amp with load management - turn off AC while drying. 240V dryers require 50 amp service. Check your specific dryer model specifications to confirm voltage requirements.
Most RV heat pumps draw 12-16 amps when running, well within your 30-amp service capacity. However, you'll need to manage other electrical loads to avoid tripping breakers when the heat pump cycles on.
Built-in Southwire surge guard EMS provides comprehensive protection including surge, voltage monitoring, and fault detection. External unit unnecessary if built-in is full EMS. Verify yours has EMS features not just surge protection.
For 50-amp RVs, invest in a quality surge protector like Progressive Industries EMS-HW50C (hardwired) or EMS-PT50X (portable). Hardwired units prevent theft and provide superior protection, while portable units offer flexibility but require security measures.
Common RV components with red lights include LP detector, CO detector, surge protector, and inverter. Red typically indicates fault or alarm. Check for model numbers to identify and post photo for specific help.
Weatherproof covers for surge protectors available from TRC, Camco, and general electrical supply. Use in-use style covers that allow cord exit while protecting from rain and sun.
Your Class A RV tripping the GFCI every couple days, especially on hot days, is likely caused by your solar inverter developing ground faults as it heats up, though a failing battery could also contribute to the issue.
Auto-reset EMS in 180-250 dollar range is worth it for 30 amp RV. Protects against surges, low and high voltage, and wiring faults. Progressive Industries EMS-PT30X and Surge Guard 44280 are top recommendations.
