Yeah, my 32YE doesn't have it. I understand what it is, as my 1999 Fleetwood had a similar unit. I would like the house battery charger to charge the chassis battery too, so it appears I'll have to...

I agree, a breaker would be prudent, enough for charging. I found a nice 180A battery switch that's a good size and ergonomics for my mounting space in the step well. I found a 150A auto reset...

I think the solar cell option will eventually be the best solution for me, if I don't find anything else wrong with my RV. I am thinking of a medium sized solar array on the roof anyway, maybe a...

I was disappointed my 2018 Vista doesn't have a BIM switch. My 1999 Fleetwood had one. If I can't find the source of this power drain, I may have to install my own BIM.

I got the fuse replaced in the meter and it works now to read amps.

With all house and dash accessories off that I can find, the engine battery draws .3A. This sounds about right since it takes...

The meter has two fuses, .2A and 10A. The .2A is blown, so that must be my problem. The challenge now is to find one of those tiny fuses. Shouldn't be a problem for Amazon.

OK, good to know. My meter has a single setting for 10A capability to read amps. I'll check out the fuse tomorrow, it's easy to access.

The voltmeter works, but the ammeter setting of the meter doesn't. I have never used the ammeter before, I've just always known it's suppose to measure current when inline to the circuit. If the...

So today I tried to measure current flow of the engine battery with no luck. My meter that I thought would measure current inline up to 10A didn't work. I tested my house battery where I know there...

This is a really good question. I think I connected the TPMS repeater to an ACC line, but I'll double check this weekend.

The radio dash switch is off, that was one of the first things I...

Yeah, that's my last resort. I'm hoping some cleaver person here has located the accessory that's draining the battery, that's my preference. I like to FIX the problem instead of putting a band-aid...

Engine Battery Drain on F53

Many of us have the Ford V10 on the F53 chassis, like my Vista 32YE. One of the issues I haven't been able to solve is the engine battery going dead after about 3 weeks of sitting. Leaving the...
