- My Motorhomes House Batteries Are Not Being Charged By My Motorhome's Alternator
My Motorhomes House Batteries Are Not Being Charged By My Motorhome's Alternator
by Buzz
(New Milford PA US)
08 Gulfstream Tourmaster house batteries won't charge off engine alternator why?
ANSWER: Greetings Buzz thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.
There could be several causes to your problem. The first thing you need to do is check for blown fuses. Check all of the wiring at the batteries for loose or disconnected wires. There may also be an in-line fuse or fusible link in the wiring leading to your House Batteries.
There is also a chance that the alternator is sending power to the house batteries but the batteries are not accepting the charge. Check and replenish the electrolytes in your house batteries.
If none of the above works it may be time to take your Motorhome in and have a mechanic run a diagnostic test on the charging system.
Hope this helps.
