Expert Answers about RV Range Hoods


  • Replacing The Light On A Ventline Pinnacle Ductless RV Range Hood # VE48SR
  • The light for the Ventline Pinnacle Ductless RV Range Hood with Light # VE48SR is encased in plastic that pops into slots in the vent. To get a replacement you would need to reach out to Ventline since it's not a generic light. Once you get the light you can pop the old one out and remove the connection to the switch and swap in the new light.

  • Fan Blade On Furrion Range Hood Hits Filter After Replacement
  • The Fan Blade # FR63MR should slide fully onto the motor shaft and you will feel it stop, for the Furrion Ducted RV Range Hood # FHO23SACRBL. Do be sure to check the mounting bracket for the motor as this can sometimes become bent down when pulling the old motor off. You may have to remove the bracket to straighten the arms to where the blade no longer hits the Filter # FR43MR.

  • Troubleshooting A Greystone RV Range Hood That Only Blinks
  • The first step to troubleshooting anything electrical is to test the voltage and ensure that it's properly grounded. I recommend using a tester like # PT89ZR and seeing if the range is actually getting 12v. If not then you'll need to check the wiring running to it for any damage and possibly increase the gauge to ensure there isn't a voltage drop. From there you'll want to check that the ground is going directly to the frame of the trailer or to a ground bar in your power center that's...

  • Trailer Brake Controller Installation in 2005 GMC Sierra
  • I do not know which controller brand and model you have or which wring adapter you're using. But for reference I linked our range of controllers, such as the Prodigy P3 # 90195, confirmed to work with the 2005 Sierra with factory 7-way. This controller uses wiring adapter # 3015-P for installation in your truck. I linked an article to help you. This covers the whole process of brake controller installation in your truck. The article calls out in the second section the two wires, red and...

  • Manual Override on Brake Controller Not Working on 2012 Chevy Silverado
  • There are some tests you can do on an aftermarket brake controller to determine if it is the problem. In the truck cab you will need to sever the blue wire several inches from the back of the controller. Then use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to test the end of the blue wire coming out of the controller. It should only have power when you apply the manual override. If it shows power at idle, then there is something wrong with the controller and it will need to be replaced. If it does...

  • Brake Controller Does Not Power On After Installation on a 2002 GMC Sierra
  • It does sound like you have everything hooked up properly and all of the connections under the hood are there so the only other things I can think of are a blown fuse (the green one) or a break in the wiring from that positive post on the fuse box to the brake controller. If the post does not have power as you have indicated then its connection to the battery must be broken. You can bypass it by connecting the power wire to the positive battery terminal via a 30 amp circuit breaker such...

  • Troubleshooting A Non-Heating Furrion Over The Range RV Convection Microwave
  • If your Furrion Over the Range RV Convection Microwave # FMCM15SS is running and not heating then it has a broken Magnetron. This fortunately is a replaceable part, but you would need to reach out to Furrion to get one. Most RV appliance companies will not offer replacement parts though so you may be looking a complete replacement.

  • No 12V Power on Center Pin of 6-Way RV Connector on 2005 Winnebago Sightseer 29R Motor Home
  • If the center pin on the round 6-way connector on your motor home does not carry the 12V auxiliary power feed for your toad, there are several potential causes you can investigate. The best method for testing is use of a circuit tester like # PTW2993; a video for this item is included. Using a tester on the center pin will allow you to check for the 12V signal without the toad being connected. It is possible that your RV is not wired in the typical manner; the center pin can sometimes...

  • Troubleshooting No 12 Volt Power at 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 2009 Chevy or GM Duramax Pickup
  • I would first test the 12 volt wire hooked up to the RV-Style Trailer Connector, # PK11916, to see if the wire itself is carrying power. If it is, then there is something wrong inside the connector such as a loose connection or its wired to the wrong pin. If no power is on the wire, then I would check the other wiring to make sure you have the correct wire. If you are still not getting 12 volt power then you know something is wrong between the wiring at the rear of the truck and where...

  • 2005 Chevy Silverado 12 Volt Trailer Battery Wire for a 7-Way RV Connector
  • In the under hood accessory fuse block there are two power posts on the engine side of the block. The post closest to the front of the truck should have a wire connected to it that runs back to the factory trailer connector and provides 12 volt power at the 1:00 position as you have stated. If there is not a wire present at this location, you may need to run a 10 gauge wire and splice it into the black wire at the back of the vehicle to provide power. If the wire is there, you should check...

  • Everything But Running Lights on RV are Working
  • If everything except the rear running lights on your RV are working, I first recommend testing to see whether the issue is coming from the tow vehicle or RV side wiring. You can use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 to test the pins on your vehicle side connector with the trailer disconnected. Check to see if there is any signal with the running light pin location. If there is no signal on this pin, you will want to check for a loose ground (white) wire or for any damaged or worn areas...

  • Furrion Over the Range RV Convection Microwave Not Heating Up or Fan Working
  • Is your Furrion Over the Range RV Convection Microwave # FMCM15SS working with other settings? I reached out to my contact at Furrion and they said if the fan and heat aren't working but the microwave is getting power then the unit needs to be replaced. If this is the case and you're outside the 1-year warranty window then you can use the same microwave oven as a replacement as we don't have any other microwaves with that convection feature you're trying to use.

  • Easy Way to Bypass Non-Functioning Reverse Light Circuit on Trailer Connector
  • For your situation I would recommend bypassing the Mopar harness and get the reverse light directly from the reverse light harness of your vehicle. This will eliminate the trouble of trying to track down the problem and will solve the problem pretty effectively. Aside from that you could try checking fuses that are trailer wiring related under the hood of the vehicle as that could be an easy fix as well.

  • Landing Gear on Trailer Being Towed by 2004 Dodge Dually not Working
  • The landing gear can be powered by the 12-volt circuit on the trailer connector, by the battery on the trailer, or by both. The fuse would certainly be the easiest thing to check. The fuses for your towing circuits are protected by fuses that are usually located under the hood. Your owner's manual should be able to give you more specifics regarding which fuse to check and its location. If the fuse checks out, use a circuit tester such as part # PTW2993 to see if the motor is getting power.

  • No Power On Brake Light Circuit When Installing a Brake Controller
  • The brake signal should be fused. Check the vehicle owners manual for the fuse locations for the stop light switch or CHMSL (center high mount stop lamp). If either is blown there would be no power at the plug you found. If you have a Chevy or GMC truck/SUV then it is also possible that there needs to be some connections made under the hood to make everything fully functional. I would need to know the year, make, and model of the vehicle to know if there are any peculiarities with your...

  • Trailer Taillights Not Working on a 1998 Chevy Tahoe Everything Else Works Except Running Lights
  • It sounds like the tow package running light fuse is blown. There is a power distribution panel under the hood. When you remove the cover there will be a legend on the underside indication where the tow package fuses are located. The running light fuse for this circuit should be located in this panel also. If a tow package fuse is blown check the trailer wiring for a short on the taillight circuit before reconnecting it to the vehicle. If you find that the fuses are good, the next thing...

  • Can 25 Amp Rated Powered Jack Motor Be Ran Off 7-Way 12 Volt Circuit
  • Most 12 volt accessory 7-way circuits are rated for more than 25 amps so there's a good chance the jack setup would work just fine being powered from this circuit. I would check the fuse for this circuit under the hood of the truck and make sure it's higher than 25 but it should be. Also make sure the circuit is at least using 10 gauge wire like the part # 10-1-1 which we sell by the foot.
