Just a quick note in case anybody wonders why we left the rally early. There was apparently a loose connection in our transfer switch which was giving off a hard to trace odor. It got worse by Friday morning and melted the wiring in the transfer switch which is under the bed.
Our only choice was to dry camp or go home. Our dealer is going to check it Tuesday but if they determine it was due to my wiring of the 30 amp Progressive Industries EMS I may have to fix it myself. It has been installed since July and I have put about 2000 miles on it with no issues
Also, it's always on shore power at home with the AC running in the summer and I exercise the generator once a month.
I am going to install another smoke detector under the bed near all the electronics just to be safe. It was very difficult to locate because the odor traveled to the curb side wall and under the counter in the kitchen by the water heater. At no time did we lose power or get any bad reading from the EMS.
