Follow up on my electrical issue from above. It turned out when I introduced high voltage to the coach I smoked the inverter. I'd like to give a shout out to our member @Mark B for offering up an Trace inverter/charger that he pulled out of his rig. It worked like a champ. Thanks for all for diagnostic tips and info. This forum is a wealth of knowledge.

Thanks Richard. There were two screws that weren't visible until the lower black plate was removed. All finished and new Sharp R1874 is up and running!

Richard… any chance of getting these instructions? I’m about to tackle the project. I’ve already removed the lower plate and removed the two diagonal screws. Something else is holding it up. Thanks, Joe

Perfect! Thank you, Richard.

For all of you that vented outside, what did you use for the outside vent? I need to replace our Sharp R-1850 microwave.

Yes, we were using 2 of 3 poles on a 3 phase breaker… problem is that I picked up the high leg mistakenly. The inverter works off of the batteries but won’t pass a/c thru to feed the sub panel while running on either the generator or shore power. Also, the battery charging doesn’t work either. I’ve bypassed the inverter for a trip that I’m loading up for currently. It’s dry camping in the desert so I’ll be using the generator and a stand a lone battery charger until return. Thanks for all it the input. IMG_5876.mov

It looks as if it's the inverter. I'm not getting A/C out of the inverter to the inverter sub panel on either circuit. Definitely have A/C in to both though.The transfer switch seems okay.

Thanks Richard... I think I talked to you several years back... I made the new dash panels for my Windsor.

No EMS that I know of. The shore power is correct now but we're trying to find the damage.

My building is 240/120 3 phase. Two of the legs to neutral will give you 120v while the other “high leg” or “stinger leg” to neutral will give you 240 volts…

It was at my office where I have 240v 3 phase…

Well the plot thickens a bit. Apparently the shore power cord instead of having the typical 2-120v legs a neutral and ground had 1-120v leg, 1-240v leg and neutral and ground. We’re digging deeper into it this morning to see what we can find. I really appreciate all of your responses… Lots of great info!

The only time I have AC is when I turn on the inverter. The roof air's both power on but other than that, no AC in the rig at all. And yes, I'm fairly handy with a multimeter.

Turn our I have a Lyght LPT50BRD Transfer switch. Nothing looks to be burnt. I have an electrician buddy stopping by in a while to try and diagnose. Thank god I have a small wife that will fit in the storage bin...😃

I'll find out shortly if I have the Iota. It's a bit of a procedure as I have a broken shoulder currently. 😄 Joe 2002 Windsor 40PBT
