Chassis electric and diesel shut off.

[CoryP]

Hello.

Last night on our way out of town, my RV just shut off while driving. All 12v was off. No diesel. No lights. No flashers. Nothing for the chassis. Our generator and inverter all still worked. I got it pulled over and checked to see if all the batteries where tight and everything visually looked good. Even my salesman switch clicked on and off which will stop the generator and inverter. About 5 minutes goes by and the power came back on. So i fired up the diesel and tried to figure out where we could turn around and head back home. We where in the mountains on US60 near Payson, AZ. We made it about another 15 minutes of driving and it shut down again. This time we sat for 30+ minutes until it would reenergize. Started driving again, made it almost home then it shut down again. This time it didn't come back on for 2hrs. Made it home. But not sure it will make it to Rocky Mountain Cummins which is on the other side of Phoenix.

My dash lights never came on and the volt meter was between 14-16 volts.

My coach is a 2000 Monaco Windsor w/ 8.3l Cummins.

Any ideas on what to look for?

Also this morning it fired right up.


Thank you,

Cory P.

Sounds like a battery disconnect. Do you have a chassis battery disconnect? If you do you are probably looking at some wore or bad (dirty, burnt) contacts on it.
