My Oasis lost AC1 and AC2 power again. The diesel burner works fine. After some basic troubleshooting, Got on the phone with the customer service tech support, but he did not tell me anything I didn’t know. My problem is that I left both my power testers at home, and there is no place to buy one in Custer SD. (That’s how I end up with 3 Or more of every tool?)
I have to get one in WY, since I’m not comfortable working on AC systems not knowing if there are hot wires.
It never ends. Always something.......
 
I have two or three of everything cusssssssss I forgot where I put it/um

Did you follow the wires in thru the top to ensure no shorts?
 
Neal,
#1 I’m thinking the breakers will trip, if there is a short?
#2 I’m not running my fingers over the wires, if I’m not sure they are not hot. Got no tester, but ordered a third one on Amazon ?.
 
No tester required. Turn off the breakers, disconnect from shore power or trip breaker(s), make sure GEN AGS is OFF. Now remove the top panel where the 120V lines drop in and pull out the wires to inspect. Remove hour meter, inspect within there too. Remove front panel and inspect left side where the wires continue down and in.
 
Thanks. I have done all that in the past. Had the whole Oasis on my bench in the hangar. But leaving in the morning and want to have the tester just in case.

Today I gathered some desire to fix the Oasis electrical heater side. After checking everything around the unit, even replacing the AC relay, nothing changed.
Breaker panel was only thing left. Photo shows what I found. Another electrical “near fire” situation.
Now I need some drawing of how the wires are connected, since the labels are burned . If anyone knows, let me know.
Thanks

Looks like another inspection item annually on top of the transfer switch to ensure wires are secure.
 
That looks like more than a near fire, Buly. Holy cow!
 
I just realized that part with all the lugs is a removable shelf, which is a good thing. Now I have to find one.
Update.
Sent email with photo to Precision Circuits Inc (The manufacturer) to see if I can get the part from them .
