We were waiting for a gasket to come in to fix our big generator. This one would be able to run out ac and all that good stuff..so we put everything back together and then it took forever to start but it did. Well I was standing in the RV checking out the ac and other stuff and next thing you know, the light got very bright and blew, and plug in shot sparks and can't use it no more and the tv blew.
So that one we have that runs good is to much for this motor home....ugh.

Oops! The motor home instructions should tell you the maximum allowed voltage the place can accept. I'm sorry that happened.

We don't have the instructions on this RV, we bought it used and it didn't come with them. So I will have to look it up.

I really hope that everything is ok, don't want to blow it up.

@LadyDuck we looked up some, and the generator that we have is to many watts for the RV. We need a 4,000 watt or smaller.

The motor is so powerful and is to strong for the RV.
