Scott,

As J.R. and I both mentioned in earlier posts, there should not be a ground/neutral connection when you are plugged into shore power. It is not a safe condition (which is why the GFI outlet trips.) It's your coach and your call, but it should not be hard to diagnosis or fix the problem so that is is not an issue.

I'm fixing mine to bring my coach up to current electrical standards, and so I can plug into any outlet that give me enough juice with out having any problems.

cheers,

Aaron

Aaron,
We have similar models.
And mine does the same thing with the GFI plugs. It trips them.

The easiest solution for me is to not plug into a GFI plug. It has not been a inconvenience yet.
Good luck, and welcome to the forum.
Scott
