    Outlets work fine off generator, but when plugging into shore power (15amp), the front of RV outlets don't work.

    I decided to buy an RV adapter from Amazon and that fixed the problem. It all started working as it should. I bought the bad one from Menards. Save yourself the trouble. Don't buy a 50amp to 30amp RV adapter from Menards. The Smart Electrician model was worthless for me.

    Ok, This is a new to me RV, so I am just learning as I go. But my RV has a 50amp outlet that I assume is from the generator in the back of the storage bay. And the very long RV power cord is plugged into that receptacle. While running on Generator, everything is great. But I had to...

    I purchased a Toy hauler Class A for my wife and I to tailgate at our son's football games for his last 2 years of college. We figure we will load up the garage with Grills, PA System for Music, Folding Tables, Chairs and make the most of our time. After looking for months, I just picked up...
