Yes, I have been busy.....and most of the work isn't on my mods as much as it is repairing everything that isn't working or which was poorly assembled on this "NEW" rig. Workmanship on this machine is non existent. It's laughable.
I'm going to post my list of reworked items soon. Stay tuned. But right now I'm troubleshooting the Lippert OneControl system which quit working properly two days ago.



As far as the solar, the unit came prepped with a 10 amp pwm solar charger that, WAS MISWIRED. I installed a 165 watt RENOGY flex panel & used Eternatape to secure it to the roof. I immediately got a P01 error. Looked it up & discovered they wired the inputs reversed. (Just one of a dozen wiring errors I've dealt with thus far.) It's charging fine now.
I also installed a 2200W inverter with a built in 20A solar charger. I'll install 2 more panels & 2 lithium batteries in the future.
