Hey I just purchased a 2007 Fleetwood revolution 40l, I went looked at it before the purchase and everything worked fine. Well I had to have it delivered and the driver had a blowout on right rear and drove it a while causing damage to the inverter and battery cover box and inner fender.. I haven't changes the inverter yet I'm waiting on it to be delivered tomorrow, but now the rear camera doesn't work, 3 of the slides don't work and the power on the seats. Iv checked all the fuses and none are blowed.. Question is would the inverter being damaged affect any of this? I started generator all that works but slides still won't come out even with Gen started. I have not plugged it in to shore power till I replace the inverter, it ripped the big power and ground off the front of the inverter. Any advice would be greatly helpful Thanks

I can’t imagine it damaging inverter and not destroying a lot of wiring in battery compartment. My slide control center is in that same compartment getting power from batteries start there. Generator also powers thru inverter just like shore power.

Yeah it has me lost, only 2 wires I see damaged are the big power and big ground that hook to inverter, the other box in there is located at the front and wasn't damaged.. I was thinking even with a damaged inverter that the slides should still operate off 12 volt power.. 1 rear slide does operate the other 3 won't.

Inside or outside rear?
There is a ride height valve and Linkage arm within a few inches of both inside rears so if it was a inside double check that also.

The inverter very well may play a part in the 120v side of your RV's circuit. Mine does and is fused for 30 amps. There is a reset button on the side of my inverter/charger that pushes to reset the circuit.

I changed inverter today and a Ann 100 fuse and now have power to everything, still having a small issue with 1 slide in the rear on the same side the guy had the blow out, that slide will go out but nothing when I try to go back in with it. Didn't have time today but I believe that shouldn't be to hard to figure out.. I was just relieved all the other slides and everything else is back working.. Thanks for all the advice

Don’t forget to check ride height valve and air bags. Unless they have been changed they should be pretty cracked.
