Product Description
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?"
From the Back Cover
For RVers who remain mystified by their RV's electrical systems--120-volt alternating current (AC) and 12-volt direct current (DC)--this book is a godsend. It provides a better understanding of what electricity is and what it does.
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?" It tells you how to repair and improve electrical systems; how to troubleshoot faulty brakes, taillights, and "house" circuits; how to detect dangerous shorts, faulty grounds, inadequate connections, malfunctioning switches, dead battery cells, or current leakage; and much more.
This book could save your vacation, or even your life.

UTTER GARBAGE,

Ce commentaire est de: RV Electrical Systems: A Basic Guide to Troubleshooting, Repairing and Improvement (Paperback)
THIS BOOK IS TOTALLY USELESS UNLESS YOU ARE TAKING AN ELECTRICAL COURSE. THERE ARE ABOUT TWO OR THREE GENERAL (REPEAT GENERAL) PAGES THAT ARE ABOUT THE RV ITSELF. IT DEDICATES WORDS, SENTENCES, PARAGRAPHS, CHAPTERS TO INFORMATION YOU WILL NEVER NEED. THERE IS FAR MORE INFO IN MY TRAILER HANDBOOK ,WHICH IS ALSO USELESS. THAT IS WHY I WASTED MONEY AND TIME ON THIS BOOK. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SOME OF THE OTHER REVIEWERS WERE SEEING USEFUL IN THIS BOOK.SAVE YOUR MONEY.

Ce commentaire est de: RV Electrical Systems: A Basic Guide to Troubleshooting, Repairing and Improvement (Paperback)
This book descibes electricity, batteries, control circuits et al in the right level of detail to allow the person with basic hand eye coordination to troubleshoot if not fix almost any electrical problem the RV'er might encounter. Many simple diagrams to aid in the understanding of concepts and tracing of problems. The book does assume the reader will have a knowledge of basic hand tools, the skill to use them and an ability to convert the porvided knowledge into action. One must be able to look at the drawings in the book and locate the item on the RV. Highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to know what makes the electrical system tick in their RV.

Worthless!,

Ce commentaire est de: RV Electrical Systems: A Basic Guide to Troubleshooting, Repairing and Improvement (Paperback)
This book has a write up on it's back cover that would lead you to believe that it is the answer to all your RV problems and questions. Not true! It is the most worthless, frustrating piece of printed matter that we have ever read. The Moller's wasted almost the entire text with descriptions of tools that one might use, and have a nasty habit of titling a paragraph "Troubleshooting a Whatever" then telling you that the only tests that can be performed are as previously described in this chapter. Yup, you guessed it.... nothing previously described.
