Steering West Sou’ West and heading home. . . eventually

TUE August 24, 2010

Steering West Sou’ West and 14,639 miles since I left Sun City West 3+ months ago; heading back, but remember rule #1 for this adventure, NEVER IN A STRAIGHT LINE.

I stopped first about 48-km outside of the park in Sussex, New Brunswick, Canada to have the electrical problem fixed and the tech found a blown fuse on the Tahoe that he suspects then lead to an overload of an electronic breaker inside of the trailer power converter. The blown fuse in the Tahoe cause the car not to be able to charge the 2 trailer batteries and the popped electronic breaker in the trailer power converter meant that when I plugged into shore power the converter couldn’t step it down to the 12-volts that lights run on; etc, etc, etc. He believe what caused the problem was the electric hitch I had installed on the trailers’ tongue so I wouldn’t have to crank the hitch; he told me in the future just to disconnect the trailers electric connection to the Tahoe before operating the electric hitch.

I am back in the USA tonight and heading for Massena NY and its great to have light in the trailer.
