I have a 2015 Thor Challenger 37 GT. the problem is the slides will retract or extend. I've searched everywhere for a fuse or circuit breaker. It's has to be so simple, that l'm overlooking it.

SOURCE: I have a residential panel with all Challenger

You should only use breakers listed for the panel you have Look on the inside cover of the panel and see what breaker numbers are listed. Many breakers will fit, but are not listed. They are both 15A, but you didn't indicate what brand of panel they are installed in. Most likely, the GE breaker was added,

SOURCE: Will an Eaton br 120 circuit breaker properly replace a challenger c120?

Hi - I'm an electrician and can help you with this question.

It is very important to note that only those circuit breaker models listed on the electrical panel cover are permitted by electrical code to be installed in the electrical panel. Introducing any other brand or model circuit breaker voids the UL or FM listing, regardless if it fits.

This is because the manufacturer sends his product to a UL and/or FM laboratory for thorough testing and certification. The product (electrical panel in this case) is tested with all the breakers the manufacturer supplies with the panel. If the panel passes the tests, the manufacturer receives the much coveted UL and/or FM listing or mark for the panel and breakers that pass and can be marketed and sold. Only those breakers that were tested and passed in that panel and are permitted to be used in the panel and can be considered a UL and/or FM listing assembly. The code allows only those electrical products bearing this mark to be installed. So, even though each manufacturer has their individual products tested in different combinations, they can not be "mixed and matched" between different manufacturers and products not tested in that particular combination. The only the tested combinations the passed are printed on the inside of the panel cover. Mix and match results in an electrical code violation (an inspector would require the correct breaker before giving an approval) and if a fire breaks out - and it is determined that the source was this circuit breaker - most insurance companies will not pay a claim. That's a lot of risk for a $10 circuit breaker.

You should only install a circuit breaker that is listed for use in the panel you have. Check this link for a listing of C120 breakers available for purchase

Good luck!

How to change wiring harness on 2014 thor challenger GT rear slide out

The slide mechanism is made by an independent company. Find the manufacturer of the slide mechanism and they most likely have owners and service manuals posted online.

I need a wiring diagram for the 12 volt system on a 2000 Damon Challenger. I have contacted Thor and they said their records don't go back that far.

Thor never made that model so they will not have that information available. Thor bought Damon around 2011-12 time frame. Many places that fix RV's will tell you that if you bought a Damon product before Thor bought them, it is probably still in good condition and has needed minimal fixing but anything after Thor, forget it. At least when you throw your money in the toilet you know why you lost it.

I did find some available 2000 damon challenger motorhome wiring diagram Google Search

2012 Thor Challenger 36FD; Auxiliary batteries went dead, tv recepticals and generation not kicking on. Charged batteries, but no change. Is there a reset button or maybe a fuse that I might need to...

If the unit has a transfer switch that switched between generator and shore power you need to look at that since nothing is working with the unit plugged into shore power. There may also bee a few battery disconnect switches close to the batteries. In that system there should also be a few inline circuit breakers. If they have tripped they will need to be reset. To determine if they have tripped you will need to look at the circuit breaker and see if there is a small black lever hanging down. If there is, slide it back up and it will lock back into place and should restore power. Without actually seeing the coach and the power configuration it is difficult to determine exactly the problem. Hope this helps.

Here is the another. Not the same as above.

My assessment will be the automated transfer switch is not working. If the battery pack is below specified charged levels. The system has a protection circuit not to allow the transfer from the grid to isolation switch. When the charge is achieved to satisfactory levels. Then it will function.

It is possible you may have a shorted cell in one of the batteries preventing the charge to be successful. I would observe the water levels in each battery and every cell. When full there is a mirror like image in each cell designed to indicate the level. A run down battery will have very low levels at either end of it. The hydrometer is the best way to see specific gravity. When found then isolated you can remove from the series.

A blown fuse or tripped breaker protects the downstream equipment and the power control board.

There should be a shop manual somewhere in the RV. Customer service is available at the links offered. Fare. well.
