maintenance that led to their needing to be replaced. In an RV, there can be two batteries, one for the engine and one for the house. A dead battery can be due
to different factors: a slow drain of the charge due to headlights being left on, exterior lights, the engine being left on auxiliary mode, front audio systems, or forgetting to turn on the generator while parked. The house battery can drain from the house lights, fans, or appliances being left on.
Sometimes, a battery can end up dead if it is overcharged, which can result in overheating. Monitor the battery levels once a week using a battery monitoring device if the RV isn’t being used often, such as during storage. It’s important to unhook and remove batteries and store them in a cool, dry place; and plug the RV into shore power at least eight hours a week. Sometimes, a battery can lead to sulfuric acid forming in the interior metal plates and growing too large to break down when the battery is left at low charge for too long. Make sure the battery is kept charged.
What do you do if you have a dead battery? You can try jumpstarting the chassis battery from another vehicle, but you should be familiar with your RV’s engine to do this appropriately. You may find otherwise that you need to, after all, replace a battery.
YOUR RESERVATIONS
ARE WRONG OR
MISSING.
What if you reach your destination campground and find that your reser- vation doesn’t exist? What if you realize that your confirmation is for a different weekend, or a different campground by a similar name?
Mistakes happen, so first it’s import- ant to confirm your reservations prior to leaving on your trip, whether that’s find- ing the paperwork or calling the camp- ground to confirm. Once on the road, it’s important to buffer your time, meaning you arrive at the campground in daylight and as close to the check-in time as pos- sible. This ensures that you have time to find the information, for the campground to accommodate you on a different site, or to find a nearby campground that can take you for the night.
