Heart Source Manager II

Hi yall.....just wondering if anyone has experienced the resettable breaker pop on the inverter portion of their Heart Source Manager? If you had that happen did it kill everything on the Heart box or just cut off the inverter?

Hmm....nobody.
The reason I ask is that I want to permanenetly disable my inverter and as there is no wiring diagram available for it i dont have much to work with. There is however that resettable breaker clearly marked inverter. I am thinking that if I were to pull a wire off that breaker and tape it up I might have accomplished my goal....any thoughts?

I believe you lose all 120v output from the inverter circuits, and I think the inverter stops charging as well.

I think you guys are right from what I can see.
Decided to check all my connections in there and found a burnt wire and terminal on the air conditioner lockout strip. Gonna have to do a fix on this. It appears that it is an in and out through a switch in the Inverter so I will need to remove the wires from the strip and I will probably just tie them together for now in case I need AC in the next few weeks. I wont be using the inverter anyhow. Gonna phone Fleetwood and check on this first .....I just hope I can talk to someone who knows anything. Its very difficult getting answers on some of this stuff because the guys they hire have never worked on them.
I went and ordered a new Magnum charger inverter and will replace this damn Heart system when we get home. At least the new system will have a separate transfer switch and its a pure sine wave inverter so the coach will be totally upgraded in that area.

Update on the burnt wire and ruined terminal strip. I talked to Xantrex and they confirmed that it is simply a switch. I asked if terminal strip J4 which is unused on my unit as I dont have floor heat would work and they said yes. So thats what I will do...move the wires from the fried terminal strip to the J4 terminal strip.
