Battery Disconnect Solenoid

[datkin]

I think that the House Battery Disconnect Solenoid is bad. I have the Surfside RV. Where can I find the Solenoid?

[ga traveler]

the easiest way to find it, is go to the hot side of your house battery. Follow the heavy duty wire, Usually a #2 or larger wire, until it attaches to the disconnect.

Oikay I tried that. there is one large wire that goes to the inverter, another one goes to the solenoid that connects the house batteries to the starter battery. And a Third one that goes to the battery charger. could not find how the panel is fed. I'm assuming that solenoid is bad and that is why there is not power.

I think mine is behind the fuse panel that is mounted in the compaartment where the inverter is.

When you do find it, check for secure connections. I just went through a series of problems that were caused by a loose solonoid connection. Good Luck

Found the Solenoid its in a compartment front left compartment. As it turned out that was not the problem. It was a ground wire disconnected. I spent several hours tracing out the wires checking the ohms on the wires. Figured out it was a grounding problem. the first ground wire I started to look at was disconnected.
