I'm helping a friend install a washer dryer in is 2003 expedition he did not have one but he has all the pluming and the power wires there but the power wires had a cover not an outlet so we removed that and installed an outlet but there is no power on those wires, I checked the breaker and nothing, does anyone know what could this be? Thanks Joe

It sounds like the wires weren't connect to the breaker box. I would pull the box to find out.

Most coaches that are pre wired were capped off at both ends. You may also need to purchase a breaker for the panel as well but the wires should be there.
Good Luck

We almost purchased an Expedition. The dealer was in the process of installing a Splindide Combo washer/dryer. Wires were capped at both ends. He added a fuse at the main box and conneced the wires. then added a box to plug the combo into. Very easy. Made a nice installation. Oh, we didn't purchase unit because we discovered the MH had been in a flood and had lamination problems. dealer way of over coming these problems was to dazzale a buyer with all kinds of neat gadgets. ed

thank you all for the replys, but this rv as a breaker that is labeled for the washer/dryer and its got a wire to the breaker.

Then test for power coming out of the breaker. Failing that, make sure the breaker is properly connected to the box. If it is a real breaker, push it all the way off, then back on to propertly reset.
