Need owner's manual

I just acquired a 1992 Ultra by Gulfstream RV and did not have the RV's owner's manual. Everything was working until yesterday when all the RV's interior lights and fan vents quit working. I check the auxilliary battery and is working. I checked the main feed to the RV's fuse box and I get 13 plus volts and all fuses are good. The motorized step is working. What else I can check to get my RV's power back.

Everything else in the truck is working.

Please help. Where can I get an owners manual for the RV?

I don't own a gulfstream, but I've found lots of owner manuals online. Sounds like you have a 12 volt issue. This is a very helpful bunch of folks at iRV2. Welcome aboard, and I'm sure someone will be along soon to advise you.

Hello Ambet717 and to the Gulf Stream Owners Forum. We are glad to have you join us here and we look forward to reading of your adventures and experiences. I am sure you will enjoy the website and forums. Good luck, stay safe and keep us posted.
Make sure the battery disconnect it turned on. If so, I would suggest that you trace the 12+ from the battery bank to the over current protection device (fuse or circuit breaker) verifying they are good. Continue on to the battery disconnect solenoid ( line & load side) for the same. If this all checks good, check the 12- to verify that it is properly grounded to the chassis. Make sure, sometimes it looks OK but looks can be deceiving. Let us know what you find.

I doubt the owners manual will help. Most are pretty vague and designed to cover a multitude of models.

Your vintage Gulfstream (as well as mine) is loaded with scotchlock connectors. They are know for corroding and loosing connections. I don't think 3M designed them for permanent installations, just temporary like hooking up a U-haul trailer. Most likely you will find one of these causing your problem. I have gone through my 1993 Friendship and replaced hundreds of them with butt connectors, dielectric grease and heat shrink tubing. I have the owners manual for mine and it is a generic, generalization of how the coach is supposed to be. It is basically useless.
Good luck.
