I've only had my 74 Palm Beach about two months but this is my third GMC. I immediately replaced a working buzz box because it really buzzed, but it was working. I installed a new Intellicharge 9245 and all was well.
Then the night before last the furnace would not light. It would try for about one minute and then shut down. The next morning I noticed that my lights seemed a bit dim and put two and two together. I presumed the furnace would not light is because the voltage was below 10.5 volts. I got a volt meter and went to my new charger to measure the output. It was about eight volts. So I assumed that the Charger had failed but when I removed the load the output of the charger measured 13 volts. I hooked it back up but had to go to work. Now the furnace still won't light and the voltage reads about 10 volts. What is going on? No other changes in my electrical system except I added a rear view camera last weekend.
What say you electrical detectives? Anyone have a suggestion other than paying my local mobile RV repair guy $100 an hour to make me look stupid. You guys can make me look stupid for free. What, I didn't say that.
Who's got the answer?
