Re: Newbies: Please read

Hello, I am new o Rv'ing and B190s but I jumped in and bought the first one I looked at. a 1991 Albino. I feel like I got a good one from a good owner. This is the PO'ers photo but I will make my own memories in the van starting this spring. I am hoping to learn a lot from this forum. Welcome to th...

Re: Battery/power issue

Ok I’ll check that out. Also do you have a photo of how the battery isolator switch is connected? I’m thinking it might have been wired backwards. I swapped the wires around and I could get everything to work off the coach battery if the key was turned on I don't have a picture. Honestly I'd have t...

Re: Battery/power issue

Ya exactly. If I leave the coach battery hooked up and disconnect the engine battery then I have no lights, water pump, etc. that’s with the key on or off. I’m assuming the coach battery is directly wired to that stuff somehow? Does it go through a breaker or fuse first that I should be checking? Y...

Re: Battery/power issue

The engine battery is on the passenger side like it’s supposed to be. As far as I can tell all of the wiring is original. Could the converter have something to do with it? Sort of. If it's bad, which often happens to the original ones, it wouldn't be charging the battery (whichever one it is), so i...

Re: Battery/power issue

So switched out the battery isolator and still the same problem. When I turn the key on I can hear a click coming from the isolator but with the key on or off it still only runs off of the engine battery. I’m starting to think it’s something to do with the generator missing. Anyone have any suggest...

Re: Towing a vehicle...

My silver car trailer and race car work pretty well. I'm restoring a little car to pull as well. See that's a good looking rig. I took the Cougar the weekend above where I was wondering which one I'd take. ;) For reference, the tow dolly I had was totaled in the crash in 2010. The tray had been ben...

Re: Battery/power issue

Im positive the batteries are on the correct side. I just disconnected the engine battery and confirmed nothing inside the rv will work. So the engine battery is the only source of power. So now that my question is could I have a bad battery isolator switch? I don’t know much about how they work bu...

Re: Battery/power issue

I have a 91 b190 and on our last trip I noticed the engine battery is going dead while the house battery seems to stay charged. From what I can tell it seems everything that is supposed to run off of the house is actually running off of the engine battery. We ran the heat on and off throughout the ...
