If your electrical system is in need of repair, you'll need to fix it up as soon as possible. Without the electrical system, you'll be stuck without lights to see at night, without pressurized water for when you want to take a hot shower, and without an air conditioner to cool down your rig. All three of these things are vital to having a great vacation. If you are short a few wires or simply need a way to organize them, we're here to help. While we can't replace the valuable skills and knowledge of a licensed electrician or a certified RV technician, we can still help you out with some of the simpler repairs. Here at RecPro we know that every motor home, trailer, and recreational vehicle aren't created the same. There is a myriad of combinations in lighting, appliances, and extras that need to be powered in your rig. Not every application requires the same kind of power. That's why you want a supplier that has the best in electrical supplies to fit your exact needs. We carry a wide variety of trailer wiring at RecPro. Heavy-gauge wire that can handle the biggest fifth-wheels, all the way down to wires that supply single-axle car haulers; all are available at recpro.com.
While there are many electrical problems that should really be handled by a professional, there are still quite a few that you could handle yourself or have a friend help you with. To assist you in figuring out the problems with your RV's electrical system, we've compiled a list of the most common problems and what they mean.
Avoid rewiring the entire system until you've checked all of the possibilities. If you're not confident in your ability to fix your electrical problems, consult a professional. To check your electrical system thoroughly, check the grounds, inspect the terminals, check the fuses, determine if the issue is with the tow vehicle wiring or trailer wiring, and when in doubt, always mind the ground wires.
