Had an intermittent problem with our microwave, and finally isolated it to the the door switch. With the door open and power OFF, I used a popsicle stick to lightly "exercise" the switch several times. Viola - problem solved. The problem did reoccur once, but a second treatment with the po...

Do you mean the breaker on the post at the RV park, or a breaker internal to the BF? Have you been running other electrical loads at the same time as the A/C? Such as the microwave, water heater, and/or the refrigerator? If so, you may be right at or exceeding the 30 Amp capacity. Here are a couple ...

We have Virgil Dutton's new spare carrier on our rear door BFT, and it works fine. Mounts the same as in in Dallas Ballio's pictures. No problem with the rear door, and the swivel allows ready access to the water heater. Great design!

Now have one on my 2006 BFT. Love it, plus Virgil is great! His new design is awesome - highly recommend it.
