Howdy Back East Don. Mohave here. I'm making good progress on the RV. Have an electrical question for you. My lights are dim but my receptacles work full power. This is occurring while plugged into the house power. Are there any obvious and simple things you would check on before taking it into an expert?

Got everything fixed. It was a string of issues.
1. You were right, Back East Don, I checked the ground wire and it was severed. Jacked up the RV and fixed it.
2. New battery - old one was bad I and didn't know it.
3. Replaced the two 15 amp. relays that sit outside the battery box on the vehicle frame.
4. Located hidden wire that the previous owner had tied into a ceiling light to tie into a lamp that he'd disconnected. Wires were touching and kept blowing a fuse.
Then everything worked. It took me a month to figure all this out. But I learned a lot and it was worth the education!

Hello Back East Don. Have you experienced any issues with water on your cab floor? If so, what was (or would be) your order of prognostication? When I bought my 87 Itaska, I realized there was a lake under both seats. I removed the seats and flooring and dried everything up. Now that rains have returned, I've tried to locate the source(s). Both upper corners under the dash are damp. I'm wondering if, in your opinion, this would signal a windshield leak.
Don't want to bother you but I've appreciated your other posts and would appreciate any thoughts. Thanks so much! JEH
