I have a :99 Hurricane. Yesterday, I decided it was time to de winterize and get it ready to go. When I plugged it into the power outlet, the breaker, in the garage "popped". I found that the recepticle, on the MH, where you plug the cord in, was faulty and shorting out the circuit. Apparently the caulking/sealant around the recepticle had allowed moisture to get in. I think that the location of the recepticle, right under the water fill opening, is some what at fault
I suggest that everyone check their recepticle, to be sure that you don;t have this problem. Not much of a job to correct my problem, about $40 and 2 hours.
