OH AND IVE GOT A 2005 CHALLENGER
Very good video with lots of useful information.
Oh my how this helped me ! I just couldn't figure out why my sink GFI outlets wouldn't work and had no rest buttons. I search the fuse box, checked the breakers and was going to go under the sink when I found this video. It explained it all clearly. My bathroom GFI reset button works for the kitchen also. All connected. Thank you!
Thanks, we appreciate your feedback!
great job! clear, concise and the penny analogy was excellent. Thank you!
Great video!
Tis video is very helpful in understanding and operating the RV
Thank you! We appreciate your feedback.
Great Job
Nice clear explanation, good job
I got it fixed
Don't have one I'm going to bed
Good advice
I'm so impressed with his voice, wow! I own a brand new 272BH which has some issues I'm still trying to resolve in the second month of ownership, will contact the company if no response from the dealer (no replies to messages and emails).
Yes, our customer service team will most certainly want to hear from you. Please do not hesitate to contact them Monday - Friday 8am-5pm EST at 1-866-425-4369. Please have your VIN handy. Thank you.
The fuse for my older cougar slide out is the same fuse for the range hood…a15amp fuse for a small dinette slide…had me in a tailspin until I discovered this😮
Looking for help I'm troubleshooting why outside Outlet an outlet under the dinette table right beside it inside wall, are not working. GCF his functioning fine on all other outlets.
I have a 2007 Keystone Outback M 23RS model plugged into wall outlet using heavy duty RV extension cord but still has no power to run AC ( Carrier RV) and Fridge (Dometic autoref temperature controlled) after it shut off from low power to shut off entirely yesterday; checked GFCI and Circuit breakers which was initially changed to the proper rating and amperage due to 3 blown fuses upon checking after the power shut off (2 40amp fuse and 1 20 amp fuse); the alert meter propane gas detector was blinking red to steady and now not on green but dead. I was informed as well that 2 30lb propane gas was low initially as it has been used, All RV outlets working including lights, excluding Stereo(Jensen) which s not working, no power on, but Microwave is on as tested. Need help to turn on AC or Fridge so as not to overload. Please and thank you
Great info
Not enough power! Check out Camp Liberty on UA-cam instead!
Great Video, thank you providing explanations of the system. I know you can't troubleshoot over text but, I have a question. Any idea why my 12v main (20A) fuse blows when i connect or disconnect my 30A cord from my generator (no load on system)? Bad converter possibly? TIA
After a very frustrating day of checking power, breakers, fuses, searching websites and watching videos (like this one) attempting to learn why the air conditioner in my 2020 Keystone Hideout wasn’t working I found a service technician who told me about the (unlabeled) switch above the fireplace that disables the AC.
My 2018 montana3160rl started with noise coming from the electrical system so I unplug the main power and it stop. What do you think it is?
Please help! I have bought two batteries now both deep cycle batteries 12 volt 690 MCA 101 amp hours. Both of which have died on me. I live in the rv full time so I'm guessing it relies a lot on the battery. The rv is also connected to a 30 amp breaker switch inside of my parents house. This is in a 2004 Keystone Outback 28 RLS and I can't find anything online about it. Do I need a bigger size battery or what is my problem?
I have a 2102 Laredo bumper pull. I pulled the wires off the first breaker on the hitch because it was rusted to hell and forgot which post (on the breaker) had 2 wires and which had 1. Not sure if it matters but I would appreciate any help here. And please, forgive my retardery.
I have a 2017 2670bh any idea if the converter would be 3 stage?
Hi, Steve. Yes, all Passports have 3-stage battery charging.
Why does the battery/12V system use black and white wiring? This is too easily confused with 120Vac hot and neutral wiring! Also, why would the black 12V wire be positive? On cars/trucks, black is negative. I don't understand why the 12V system doesn't use the same color code as cars and trucks.
My Keystone Carbon 36 toy hauler does not identify the fuse list! The paper is blank and I can’t get Keystone to respond. I have a blown fuse and I have no idea what’s causing it because the fuses are not identified!!
Nice information, as a first time keystone cougar travel trailer owner my question, is can you convert a 30 amp travel trailer into higher amp trailer?
not easily
where does the trailer plug into for the travel lights
Hi, Dennis. There is a cord on your A-frame near your battery hook-up that plugs into your truck.
I'm trying to find wiring schematics for keystone Carbon model 403 satellite/TV system. Any ideas?
Hello! For this question we suggest that you please contact customer service directly. Please call 866-425-4369
We have a Passport Elite 19RB. When plugged in to 30 amp service, we can use the outlets to power appliances. When we are not plugged in, is there an inverter that changes the 12v to 120 to power appliances like a CPAP? I guess my question is, is there a built in inverter that services the outlets by the bed, in the kitchen or in the bath, and behind the TV?
Good morning, this is a great question. Because this is a VIN specific question, you'll need to call with your VIN and speak to our call center to confirm what your unit came with or is prepped with. The number is 1-866-425-4369 and they are open Monday - Friday. We will note, if you have inverted outlets, then the outlets themselves would be marked to identify which ones are inverted. Thank you.
Why is the converter pigtailed with the ac receptacle breaker? Can I safely add another 15a breaker to isolate the converter?
Hey there, we would be happy to help answer any of your questions if you would please call 1-866-425-4369 thanks!
Please help i have an 07 keystone and been in it for 3 weeks 2 days last week my 50 amp breaker tripped the ref hot water and the ceiling fan were the only things running then last nite at 3am no hard power pulls it tripped again them at 630 then at 9 the light font dim everything seems fine them it trips
Good morning! For immediate assistance with this, please contact our Owner Relations Department with the last 8 digits of your VIN, directly at 1-866-425-4369 Monday-Thursday 8am-5pm & Friday 8am-4pm EST. Thank you!
I have a 2022 Passport GT Series with 2 solar Panels and 2 batteries. We're at an RV park and went through a storm. Since we didn't yet have our Surge protector, we unplugged from the 50Amp outlet and figured that the 2 Solar Panels and 2 batteries would be enough. Except that the TV shut off, lights dimmed. The Panel with battery level was blinking & beeping that it was low. We plugged back in and I reset the GFCI which brought back the TV. My question is, with 2 solar Panels and 2 batteries, why did I run out of power? Am I supposed to flip some kind of switch to tap into the Solar energy? The Battery Disconnect was on.
Good morning, we are sorry to hear you’ve had issues with your unit’s solar system. There isn’t enough information provided here for us to be certain what is happening. Based on what you are noting, as long as there was sufficient sun, and stored energy, the batteries should be charged up even with the 200 system. There may be an issue somewhere in the line, however, we can’t be certain until you’ve confirmed the following and have this formally inspected. You’d want to see the status of the Victron App to see what power is coming in/going out, and we’d want to see that the batteries are testing good. If the controller and batteries are good, there should be enough power to keep the lights on. The TV wouldn’t work unless you purchased an aftermarket inverter for the inverted outlets. Not sure if you did that, as you don’t mention that here. The batteries and inverter are not included by Keystone RV. I would ask that maybe you report your findings and any further questions through our retail team at 1-866-425-4369 Monday - Friday with your VIN. We do have solar experts in our call center that can also answer questions and troubleshoot with you. Thank you.
We just picked up a used 2017 premier ultra lite 29rkpr and the convertor fan is continually running any thoughts to why we are plugged in to our house. Thanks
That is a great question. The converter fan will run at all times when you are plugged in to a 110 power source or shore power. We hope this helps answer this for you. Sounds like it should be operating as designed.
If you use a 30 amp adapter on a 50 amp receptacle you are saying that its only good enough to run the battery charger and nothing else? Would you not be able to use 30 amps?
Unfortunately, the unit cannot “step up ” in amps. You can only use an adapter to “step down” from 50amp to lower amperages.
You cannot go from a 30amp and plug in to a higher amped plug, even with an adapter you cannot adapt up, only down.
the trailer is plugged in into 50 amp source, the interior lights come on, the TV is playing but nothing else operates (AC, microwave, appliances). The coffee maker light/time comes on but doesn't get enough power to make coffee. What is the issue?
We'd love to help you fix this issue! Please contact customer service directly at 866-425-4369.
What would happen if I plugged my 120 volt camper into a 220 v plug. All appliances are working but the lights and awning aren't.
Good morning! If your awning and lights are not working, we recommend to check the voltage on your RV battery. You would need between 12.6-12.8 volts in order to run the components properly. If you need further assistance with this or you have any other questions, please reach out to our Owner Relations Department at 1-866-425-4369. Thank you!
Can't seem to find mine
I'm trying to figure out why I have a 12V powered awning LED strip OWM that doesn't respond to any of my fuses in the box or on the tongue ( and no I'm not connected to shore power).
Good Morning, This fuse may be separate for the awning. There should be an inline fuse a few feet off the battery and sometimes another one is placed along the wiring for the powered awning strip. If you cannot locate this please do call us at 866-425-4369 so we can get that exact location for you! Thank you.
So how do you charge your battery for the RV does your electric pick up line do it ?
For this question we suggest that you please contact customer service directly. Please call 866-425-4369

Any tips for getting parts for a 2003 5th wheel? 😭 I have no idea what I'm doing.
Good morning Sheena, for any part questions or concerns, please contact any of our authorized dealerships. If you should need assistance locating an authorized dealership please visit our website at www.keystonerv.com and click on the "Find A Dealer" tab. You can also use our dealership who sells parts online at www.trekwood.com, they will have a parts catalog available for you to look through there. Thank you!
If we remain on shore power and the converter is converting AC to DC, why is a battery necessary?
There are directly related 12V items supplied to the unit that do not come from the shore power. Such as your slides and jacks. There are many features in the RV that require a 12V battery source in order to operate due to how the unit is wired. If you have additional questions about this, please feel free to reach out to our retail team directly at 1-866-425-4369. Thank you.
How do I connect POS and neg wires to battery? Wich order do I connect it too??
Good morning, it depends on how old your unit is. If it's a newer unit, 2016-current, then it's wired just like an automotive battery. Black is negative and red is positive. If you have an older unit, then it's likely going to be backwards. If you have further questions, please do contact our retail team at 1-866-425-4369.Thank you.
I have a 2013 cougar 32 SAB keystone. Interior light on slders on ceiling stopped working. Led's installed. All other led lights work perfectly fine inside camper. Fuses all good, battery good. What should check. Thank you
Good Morning, we would recommend checking the wiring behind the light and all wiring by the switch for that light. If it isn't a loose wiring issue then you may just need to replace the light complete.
@KeystoneRVCompany Good morning and Thank you very much for your time..I will check them.out.
I noticed most of my freinds have same issue me as well , mine was wiring doing to the slide out .,not the fixture or bulb
I bought a 219BH Passport and it is solar ready. I bought an expansion panel and is fine, but then when I was going to install the inverter...I removed the "future inverter location" box and a 20AMP yellow Romex wire appeared, no ends, is a loop so it comes out of the wall and goes back inside the wall. I don't see any other wires (to the battery) but the converter is next to it so I guess I can wire it directly to the LOAD connectors in the converter. How do I find pictures or instructions on how to deal with the ROMEX loop? I was expecting a terminal or end of the cable. The owners manual reads that is "pre-wired for seven outlets" but I pull and both ends seem to be connected unless it is snagged and I am too weak or afraid to pull hard.
My thing is that if it comes prewired is best to use it and looks like that Romex protruding out of that hole like an intestine is where it needs to go but it does not make sense to splice it. I called and chat with Keystone but the girl in the chat had no idea and when I asked for a diagram, like the blue prints of a house, she said they don't send those to customers. Not even the roof plan to see where the joists would be for the solar panel brackets. I could test the wire but I don't want to cut the insulation. I took pictures but I don't know how to upload them here, I could send them in an email. My thing is that I understand the concept and I have done a lot of electric since my father was an electrician and I his helper until I was 21, but I don't know if the Romex comes or goes to the panel, converter, or just directly to outlets (which I doubt0 and why is it a loop and not an "end/tip".
Good afternoon, we will do our best to get you an answer here shortly on this! Thank you for your inquiry, and we'll respond here soon. Also, if we need photos we'll direct you to sent them to ownerrelations@keystonerv.com directly. However, I would wait until we get some answers on this first. Thank you.
Good morning! We do appreciate your inquiry. There are several things to keep in mind and so we will give you the best feedback we can based on the information you provided in your comment. Yes, the wiring is looped and we do NOT recommend pulling on it. It’s a simple receptacle circuit, which we do not label or have any schematic to provide to help you in your efforts with that. For safety reasons, we do not recommend RV owners to work on their 120V system. We do not have a video for the installation of the inverter for this reason as well. What we can do is refer you to a local authorized dealership for assistance with installation of the inverter itself. www.keystonerv.com/find-a-dealer. They will be able to guarantee their work, and you’ll have the peace of mind knowing it was completed by an authorized location. We also have a team here on the dealership service side for support if needed. What we can advise regarding mounting of the solar panels is that the roof is 3/8” decking, and the panel can be installed pretty much anywhere on the roof where there is room as long as your cables near the port, typically within 3’. We hope this information helps you in your efforts. Thank you!
SOS... The tongue jack isn’t getting power to it but when I go inside my passport 2015 trailer do you slide out works some of the lights on the outside don’t work and the awning does not work
please contact ownerrelations@keystonerv.com with your VIN number
@@KeystoneRVCompany OMG THANK YOU
@@KeystoneRVCompany I wasn't kidding when I said I was a newbie....I looked through my paper work cant find the VIN # where do I find this....Thanks
My neighbor has a keystone and her lights start to dim and flicker than shut off. They come back on later.... What's the best test to figure out the issue?
Good morning, since the lights are 12V she would want to check her power converter. It should be outputting 13.65V when plugged in to shore power. She can also check her batteries and her mini-breaker for voltage. If she needs further assistance, she can contact our retail call center at 1-866-425-4369 Monday - Friday. Thank you.
@@KeystoneRVCompany thank you for the guidance!!!!!
When im on battery only can i charge my phone or use my tv?
Good Morning,
Yes you will be able to use items in your unit if you are using battery power. Do kee in mind that the more you use off of the battery power with nothing charging it can cause the battery to drain quickly. If you have any questions on this please do call us at 866-425-4369.
Thank you!

"And That's....The Rest Of The Story"
I disagree-this is an excellent video. If you were confused you need to watch it a few times. You should understand this stuff before you camp/
,
Is there a fuse for the battery charger? If the charger is not working do I have to replace the entire DC convert?
Good afternoon, yes, there are 2 (40AMP) reverse polarity fuses on the converter itself. The output of the converter should be 13.65 volts when plugged in to shore power. The converter will not charge the batteries when not connected to shore power. If the converter has lower than 13.65 volts in output, you'd want to contact a dealership or service center. If the unit is 2 years old or less it may still be covered under warranty. If it is older than that, they'll at least be able to assist you in ordering a replacement. You may find our dealership locator link at www.keystonerv.com. Thank you.
