I am almost finished with the EFI install and have determined that the next project will be to move the fuse boxes and elec stuff to one of the closets so we can get at it when needed. The PO converted the rear lounge to a permanent bed so to get to a fuse is a major problem.

While working on the EFI, I have had the coach plugged in to shore power. I notice that when I act as a ground, ie laying on the ground under the coach or grabbing the door handle while outside, I get a definite tingle. Me thinks I should not be feeling that. If I unplug the shore power then all is fine. So, something is amiss and I am looking for ideas on the best way to track it down. The water heater is gas so there is no element to short out. Probably related is that when I use the rocker switch near the entry door to turn on lights it will immediately blow the fuse. The lights work fine if I use the switches on the lights if the rocker switch is off. (now you know why I needed to get at the fuses so often)

While I am excited to finally have a GMC I would prefer not to feel it everytime I open the door. Ideas?
