Disconnect the rv from its power supply before you attempt to inspect and repair any component of the vehicle electrical system.
Rv transfer switch clicking.
After searching around and removing the panels in the cargo department i found the source being the main shore power transfer switch surge guard rv power protection transfer switch model 41260.
We have tracked it down to the transfer switch.
The inverter clicking is what you would hear when everything is quiet.
The automatic transfer switch is installed before the breaker panel.
How to tell if rv converter is bad.
It is an educational exercise to watch what is happening and to hear the sound to differentiate it from the inverter.
The rv s power cord will be connected to one of these inputs and the generator will be hard wired to the other input.
An automatic transfer switch is a three way switch that will switch power between two inputs and connect it into a single output.
The transfer switch was clicking continually.
I had a similar issue start while running on generator power.
I checked power coming into the transfer switch from the genny and discovered 87 volts ac on one leg the other leg was fine.
5th trip with our 4000 started the generator ran for 5 minutes then the automatic transfer swith started making clicking studdering sound and then no power.
Well if you see your rv lights suddenly become dimmer and dimmer there is definitely something wrong here.
Any ideas what would cause the swith to make this noise.
Turned off all ac s restarted gen turned on 1 ac then the second and transfer switch made no noise and power stayed.
This video is a bit long but i tried to cover a lot of material in it.
Turned off gen restarted and did same thing.
