No Inverter Comm

I have a 2008 Monaco Cayman. I have only had the unit for about 3 months and everything has worked fine up until now. We are plugged into a 50 amp service at a park getting ready to head home. Was watching tv this morning and noticed the lights flickering when we turned on the water pump. Instrument panel shows no inverter comm. We have unplugged from 50 am service, tried using the generator, still nothing. Any suggestions on what we can do?

What, exactly, is "inverter comm" that you don't have any of?

No tv, no power to the outlets within the unit. The instrument panel shows no inverter comm. Maybe something to do with the inverter connections?

Are you absolutely positive that your house batteries are fully charged?

Unplug and replug the com wire from panel to inverter. Inverter has breakers, make sure they are letting power through. Also kill all power turn off batteries for a couple minutes, this may reset things. Test power at main breaker panel, reset breakers turn off and on at power post too. With both shore power and Gen not working for power in coach, points to transfer switch if nothing is working.

Hi ! Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

Congrats on the new rig! Sorry I don't have any advice on the problem. Keep her between the ditches!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!


Happy New Year!
