The electric hot water heater failed.an inspector of the unit said that it was a wonder the failure did not cause a fire. This is a 2017 van leigh vilano 375rl 5th wheel recreational vehicle in which we live.
Leaf spring broke. On highway traveling and noticed wheels no right on trailer . Stopped and tires on double axle were touching. Underneath saw leaf spring broke . Weight of trailer is over the 7000 lb springs on suspension . Lippert mfg will send repair out to replace. Road repair told us he has replaced several of same recently due to the spring is too short .lucky we didn't flip and injuries sustained.
7-way cord including brakes are fused off of the circuit breaker. When break away is activated it can blow this 20 amp fuse and terminate the power to the 7-way cord and break away. In a break away situation from the tow vehicle this would cause the break away switch to not activate and not stop the vehicle. I am a technician at an rv dealership and noticed this. I called van leigh and asked why they did this and have still not received an answer. I checked all of the other 2017 van leigh vilanos on our sales lot and they are all wired this way.
