Troubleshooting EcoSmart Tankless Water Heater Error Codes

The placement of the power centre and water heater valve in a 2005 Coachmen Freelander motorhome may differ based on the particular model and floorplan of your RV. Nevertheless, I can offer you some general details on where these parts are usually located and how to use them.

RV Power Center:
The power centre in a recreational vehicle (RV) typically contains the electrical distribution panel, fuses, and circuit breakers. It is usually situated within the RV, often in a cabinet or utility area.

• Search for a panel that has a door or cover that can be opened. Inside, you will discover the circuit breakers and fuses that regulate the electrical systems in your RV.
• To activate or reset circuit breakers, locate the one that corresponds to the specific area of the RV you wish to power, and switch it to the "ON" position. If a circuit breaker trips, it will be in the "OFF" position, and you will need to reset it by moving it to "ON."

Water Heater Valve:

• The water heater valve for an RV's hot water system is usually located near the water heater unit itself, which is often found in an exterior access compartment.
• You'll typically need to access the water heater compartment by opening an exterior access panel or door on the side of your RV. The water heater will be a rectangular or cylindrical unit.
• Once you locate the water heater, look for the water supply lines connected to it. You should find a bypass valve system nearby that allows you to control the flow of water into the water heater.
• The valve positions may vary depending on the RV, but in general, there are typically three positions: "Normal," "Bypass," and "Winterize." To use the water heater, you'll want to set the valves to the "Normal" position. In the "Bypass" or "Winterize" positions, the water heater is either bypassed or prepared for cold weather storage.

Conclusion.
Different models and years of RVs may have variations in the location and functioning of these components. To obtain accurate instructions for your Coachmen Freelander model, it is crucial to refer to your RV's owner's manual. If you have any doubts about any aspect of your RV's systems, it is advisable to seek help from a professional RV technician or contact the manufacturer's customer support.

You don't give enough info, but I presume you mean the breaker on the parks supply post trips?
If so it means you have a dead short somewhere in your RV, the only way to find out what and where is to turn all the breakers on the RV board, turn on the master first, it should stay ON, (See note) proceed to turn the other breakers "ONE BY ONE", one of them should jump your or the park's main, keep that one OFF until you identify and repair the shorting equipment in your RV.
(Note if the parks breaker jumps when you turn on the RV's main only, get professional help.)

I am familiar with a NEST thermo. The color of the wires on the RV should conform to AC standards of which there are none.

Power to the device is a serious consideration. Contact the manufacturers support BEFORE purchasing. Discuss their product in your proposed application.
The residential standard power is 24 vac. If your RV provides this voltage, then installation is straightforward. The NEST may have a solution to this if it is a problem in your application.

With the problems involved, I would have to recommend the PROFESSIONAL installation option mentioned in the NEST directions. If you have the tools, skills and knowledge to resolve any issues then do it! I can vouch for the NEST thermostat's durability. It has been subjected to rough handling, changing homes and power outages.

I love my NEST and it is much smarter than needed but I can check and set it from any internet access. Nest Learning Thermostat 3rd Generation Stainless Steel Works with Amazon...

Your trailer has two electrical systems, 12v and 120v. The 12v system has a battery and perhaps a converter/charger to power it. The 120v system must he hooked up to 'shore power.' Both systems have their own protection. The 12v system has a fuse panel, check for power at each fuse. 12v wall switches are often smaller and don't look like typical 120v switches like in a house.

The 120v system has a breaker box and circuit breakers. Reset each breaker by turning off then on again. In addition, the 120v outlets might have a GCFI outlet near a sink. It often is wired first in a breaker circuit, thus giving GCFI protection to other outlets in the circuit. Test the GCFI and make sure it clicks off and can be reset.

suggest this: hire a technician to fix it for you. you would need the wiring diagram for the thermostat and to find which wires go where in the wall.

this is a task that is normally beyond the ability of an owner. It requires some technical knowledge of thermostat wiring, as well as using a voltmeter.

you might post an ad to locate another owner of your model RV, then ask them to pull the thermostat off the wall and take some pictures to send to you - showing the wiring connected.

SYSTEM
The following electrical components (if so equipped) will only operate when your
RV is connected to shore power: 120 to
12-volt power converter, air conditioner,
120-volt refrigerator, microwave oven, television(s), fireplace and appliances
plugged into convenience receptacles.

CIRCUIT
BREAKERS
The 120-volt AC circuit breakers located in
side the main load center protect all
120-volt wiring and components in the RV fr
om circuit overloads and short circuits.
Should a circuit overload or short circui
t occur the circuit breaker protecting the
affected circuit will "trip" preventing the flow of electricity through that circuit.
If a circuit breaker trips, shut "off"
the appliance on that circuit (i.e., power
converter etc.) and allow the circuit breaker to cool down for a brief period of time.
After the cooling down period, reset the circuit breaker by moving its lever "off" and
then back to the "on" position. If the circuit breaker re-trips or frequently trips,
contact your dealer to have the electrical problem diagnosed and repaired.
A circuit breaker identification label is permanently attached to the inside surface
of the 120-volt load center.
Maintenance and Replacement
At the beginning of camping season, inspect the circuit breakers and replace as
needed. Test by turning each circuit breaker "off" and back "on". Circuit breakers
are wearable parts and must be replaced
as needed, as part of your RV
maintenance. If you have any questions, consult your dealer.
Please contact your dealer for repair assistance when replacing circuit breakers.
CONVERTER
The power converter converts 120-volt AC power to useable 12-volt DC power
when the shore power cord is connected to an external power source.
The converter has a built-in protective thermal breaker that will shut it down should
overheating occur. Overheating can be
caused by operating the converter above
its maximum power output for an extended period of time, or by an obstruction to
its ventilation air flow. To reduce converter heat build keep unnecessary 12-volt
lights and motors turned "off"
.
Keep the converter cooling fins and fan clear of
obstructions.
Inspection and maintenance
If the 12-volt power converter is not working (auxiliary battery not being charged)
check the reverse polarity fuse(s) in the converter fuse panel.
There are no
customer serviceable parts inside the converter case and the
manufacturer's warranty will be void if
the case has been removed
. If you
have further concerns contact your dealer.

You must first determine if it is 30amp of 50amp service. If it is 30amp you will need a 30amp RV receptacle. 30amp receptacles are 110vac. DO NOT WIRE THE PLUG FOR 220! It will damage the converter and possibly more. If it is 50amp the it will be 220vac. Most power cords are 25' for RV's. When you go beyond that distance then you will experience voltage drop which could present problems with breakers overloading and tripping. With that being said, your local RV parts department will sell extension cords for RV's. To determine what amperage your trailer is, there is usually a decal above the plug port that will identify. The main breaker will also give you a clue as to the amp rating. If you have the power cord, look at the male plug end and if there are three brass terminals it will be 30 amp, if there are four terminals it will be 50 amp.

The A/C units are controlled by the thermostat. I'd start there. If a digital, turn off battery disconnect switch to see if it can be reset. Search for a manual online for your make, model of thermostat.
