Usb not charging

HELLO,
QUICK QUESTION. HAS ANYONE HAD TROUBLE CHARGING THEIR PHONE VIA THE USB PORT IN THEIR RV?
WE HAVE A 2017 WINDSPORT 31S. WHEN WE PLUG IN OUR CELL PHONES TO CHARGE, A DISPLAY SHOWS FOR USE TO USE ORIGINAL CHARGING EQUIPMENT AND WE ARE. IT ALSO MAKES A NOISE( kinda like a bell) AND KEEPS REPEATING, USE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. OUR PHONES DONT GET CHARGED. ANY IDEAS?

If you had purchased a DRV, you would not have that problem.

Usually when the phone keeps making the bell noise that means it is going in and out of charging mode. Probably a bad USB charger port. If you have a 110 outlet, use that with a portable charger. I plugged in a small fan that uses the charger in my bedroom and it blew the stupid thing. No way of fixing it without replacing it. Now I just use a charging adapter instead. Usually they are much better and faster anyway.

FYI: Don't use caps when typing. Only use them in a paragraph it your yelling.

Exactly which USB port are you plugging into? Sounds like you are plugging into a low power USB port (.5 amp) and your phone prefers that you use a high power USB port (2.1 amp or higher) - that's why your phone is telling you to use the OEM charger and probably also saying something about "slow charging", not "no charging".

I don't believe DRV makes a Class A motor coach, but only a tag-a-long.

That post was made when this thread was originally in the DRV section. It was moved to this section.

Does the USB port charge anything else? When new, the USB port in my Hurricanes bedroom was not wired correctly and it didn't work until.
