Rv Electrical Systems: A Basic Guide to Troubleshooting, Repair, and Improvement

This problem-solving reference answers questions such as, "Why do interior lights dim or burn out rapidly" and "Why won't the batteries recharge after a night without electricity?"

Bill and Jan Moeller have lived a mobile lifestyle for more than 20 years, during which they have had much experience overcoming problems with and upgrading their 12- and 120-volt electrical systems. At present, as they have done for many years, the Moellers live fulltime in their fifth-wheel trailer and travel the year round. In addition to writing books, including RVing Basics (Ragged Mountain Press, 1995), the Moellers also write a nationally syndicated newspaper column about RVing.

Bill and Jan Moeller were cruising sailors and liveaboards for more than 20 years before moving aboard a “land yacht”―an RV―where they found a very similar lifestyle on America’s highways. The fourth of their liveaboard sailboats was a 32-foot cutter in which they traversed the ICW more than a dozen times. Their frustration with existing guidebooks led them to develop this book―the only one designed to be used at a steering station on the ICW in conjunction with a chart. Every few years the Moellers return to the ICW to update their guide. At other times they roam America in their RV, favoring the West, writing and photographing books about American landscapes and history.HOMETOWN: Omaha, Nebraska
