RE: Onan 4kw issue
Running the 120 volts from genset to transfer switch and running shore power cord to same location is more cost effective for manufacturer.

RE: Onan 4kw issue
The genset power would pass through the transfer switch if equipped.
Some 30 amp rigs require the shore power cord to be plugged into a genset 30 amp receptacle.
Which do you have?
If equipped with automatic transfer switch, locate it and check for damaged components.
If genset receptacle, unplug from receptacle and then check

RE: Electric brakes self adjusting?
I do not believe they are self adjusting. Here is what could be your axle information.

RE: Motorhome drinking oil
PCV could such some oil as Chris said.
Quart every thousand miles is not that bad for Chev big block.90,000 miles should not need engine rebuild.
You may even put Seafoam in crankcase and run it to clean system. Run for 1000 miles before next oil chaange.
We have nearly 200,000 on 7.4 miles and uses a quart very 12-1500 miles. This depends on how hard the engine is working.

Thanks for the update!
Was it hard to locate a replacement relay?

RE: New Toilet recommendations
The Bravura also fits most bolt patterns, where the Sealand may need flange to be replaced or modified.

RE: 120 volt electrical outlets, no power.Help!
Do you have one of the small receptacle testers? Little yellow plug in device. This will help telling whether it is getting power or whether one of the legs is open.
Use a volt meter and check to insure you have power out of the inverter(s)
Remove the gfci recptacles from the wall, test with voltmeter to verify that you have 120 volts AC on the load terminals. GFCI receptacles protect down stream devices with this function.

RE: Dometic Thermostat
Reset the thermostat.
Some models just take removing fuse for 15-20 seconds then letting in reboot.
Other models need to have the connector in the wall separated and then reconnected.
It will take a time for system to reboot.
Another problem is RF interference from flourescent ballasts failing. If equipped, turn off all flourescents before rebooting thermostat.

RE: The Oasis System is now giving an erro message
I believe it is something on the system causing error message.
Module testing starts on page 18.Oasis Manual
Easier to test when with unit then trying to explain to a tech over the phone!

RE: 12V - 120V Norcold Fridge.
Page 6 of this manual talks about a relay that automatically switches from 120 volts to 12 volt DC operation. This relay could be bad. There is a fair wiring diagram.

RE: Ghost Battery Drain
Your profile does not show make, model and chassis of MH.
A bad diode in the alternator regulator could cause such a drain.
test I suggested could show this.

RE: Ghost Battery Drain
First thought would be bad alternator
Put meter on battery and get good reading.
Start MH and retake reading. Should be 13.5-14.4 volts.
Verify connections on battery cables. Verify that the ground to the frame is good.

RE: yellow stone np
Which one does not would be a better question!
Coming from the east, I think you would enjoy coming in through Grand Tetons or Cody. You could come in one and out the other.
Get your reservations in early for campgounds with in the park and for that matter ones outside the park like in West Yellowstone.
One entrance you would need to avoid is coming over the northeast entrance from Deer Lodge, MT.

RE: This is why we can't have nice things.
I agree with bgum!
Restricting activities that destroy the BLM, national forests and parks would be a start.
Lottery system would not work for those of us that travel aimlessly around the country with no particular place in mind!
