Cummins 12V98, you’re welcome to come take the tires.
I’d rather replace them now with one’s two years newer. They were take offs from a 2018 Mobile suite from a post off of Facebook. I just happen to sign up to the DRV Facebook page and there was a post stating they are taking them off his rig for J rated tires. I pick them up in Reno just recently. Peace of mind is invaluable.
Rynosback,, thank you for the help adding photos.
Porthole, Here’s one of the control panel. (I hope)
I would like to find the EMS module just so I know it’s there.
I have looked behind sliding access panel looking at duct with multiple rips in ducting. Fixed those.
I seen the brake control module, transfer switch, converter, but no EMS module.
I read the fourm and see there’s many things I can make better. Y’all have done modifications to your rig and make it more livable/easier to take care of.

Those without a mobile suites confuse me also.
You do not have the Progressive Industry’s EMS installed. You have the different system that they are now installing. Google, RV power monitor for ATS and all of the information will come up on what you have.

When you say chunks missing can you post a pic?

Tire date codes have "4" digits! This tire was made the 4th week of 2015, so late January 2015. If the above tire is 0616 yes 6th week of 2016.

I assumed that the poster knew where the date code (part of the DOT number) was on the tire as they posted it up.

You don't have a surge protector shown.

You have two items there specific to your AC electrical needs.

The item in the red circle is the remote panel for electrical management system (EMS).
"RV Power Monitor for ATS" ATS is automatic transfer switch.
Look behind the basement walls, probably near the center and near the rear of that compartment, and probably hidden by the duct work for a black box with the heavy shore power wires coming in and out.

The item in the green circle is a "Precision Circuits" load shedding item.

That is one sweet all-in-one system. Plug a Hughes Auto-former in front of that and your rig will be 100% protected.

They did post a picture of it Joe. It is the same controller as yours that you have pictured and they also have the power management system.

Maybe this will work, I jumped over to my phone. Here’s a few pictures.
You can see the chunk missing out of the tire. And those are my correct date codes on the tires.
As stated before I now know I am protected electrically from the power pedestal.
Thank you

Thank you
Now that you posted a picture of your transfer switch and can google the number and see that the model you have also has surge protection, although finding those specs are a challenge (Model 40350RVC).

I forgot to mention. Surge Guard is a Brand name not an equipment name.
