I have a 1993 Coachmen with the Magnetek Model 80 Power Panel. Can't find the converter which has gone bad...I want to replace both. Where is it?

Not sure where the unit is on a Coachmen . On my RV it was just inside the entry door. I just replaced the transformer portion of the unit. All of the breakets and the fuses remained. To replace the transformer potion is easy. Aftrer pulling the front cover off there are two screws near the bottom of the unit that when removed allow you to slide the transformer portion out. By unscrewing a couple of screws and unscrewing 3 or 4 wire nuts that portion of the converter can be removed and replaced with the new unit.

Test your batteries with a battery tester at full charge using a regular battery charger. If batteries test okay and upon reinstalling in the coach if the batteries don't last very long or don't maintain most likely the converter is bad.

Look at your old one. Get the name and model off of it and you can find it on the internet. Plenty of them out there. Not cheap.

Is your converter working properly? It appears the Karcher's safety is being tripped by the amount of electric entering the machine. I would put a volt/amp meter on your converter.

There are several heaters and depending upon the model/serial number the wattage will vary. The best thing to do is call Norcold Customer Services with your model and serial number and if you know the cooling unit number even better. It is located in the back of the fridge and you can see it from outside the coach/trailer. They will give you the correct part number for your unit - then order it on line via Amazon or E bay and save a bundle. It is not an easy job replacing it as the old unit is usually rusted in place- good luck. I accomplished the job and it works fine.

It could be the charge controller , they are cheap and easy to replace . You can contact the razor for any generic type that is the same volts

Radio shack carries a replacement. Bring in your old power cord and mach up the plug end that goes into the mount. As long as its the same amperage/voltage you should be ok. This is how i replaced mine and havent had a prob with it yet.

I saw the same thing on youtube and attempted the repair. I found no damaged capacitors and the kit did not contain the correct capacitors anyway. Also, the iron did not work well and I ended up using my old auto repair iron instead.

I would check with the manufacturer. They were great at replacing a bad control panel. Hope this helps.

Radio Shack should be able to fix you up...the manual should give power specs so they can get you the right amperage and so on

Same thing happened to me. However, I was able to buy an adapter from Radioshack. It is an Enercell AC Adapter cat. no. 273-313. I also had to replace the original rechargeable batteries. The more time goes on with this radio, the more I regret purchasing it. Well, good luck!

the owners manual that came with the Powerpack had directions on how to install the proper fitting ( same as the charger/converter end) on a standard 30W panel, I don't have mine anymore or I'd look it up for you, Sorry.

just bought one from the USA and converted it as per the instructions DANIEL H have suggested. I confirm the solution working perfectly fine. it was easy: unscrew the back ( full panel ) temporarily detach the two side cables links so the back panel can be flipped open 90 degree. this provide better access to the electric block. pretty much you can see is black except of a U shaped white wire connector that pops out in the middle of the electrics. pull it off using a thin plier and then close back everything making sure of reconnecting the cables links you previously dethatched. enjoy. it works seamlessly. just bought one from the USA and converted it as per the instructions DANIEL H have suggested.

The model that I have is for 120 volt use only. I guess maybe use a converter or something. Hope this helps.... Pat.
