This control board, located deep within a storage compartment, is part of a computer network in a modern motorhome. This network includes numerous touch screens that operate features like lighting and climate control.. Similar systems can also be found in fifth wheels, travel trailers, and horse trailers.
These systems are great until a single component on a circuit board fails. In this case, one of several boards lost its ability to control the water pump. We were able to send this board back to the network manufacturer for repair. However, they weren't able to repair the failed circuit. They were able to reassign another circuit to control the pump, and we relocated the pump wires.
Similar to passenger vehicles, many of these components are no longer produced after a few years and repair services are not always provided. In those situations, upgrading the entire system can be the only option.
Maintaining professional relationships with the manufacturers of these components is crucial for us. This often requires us to attend the manufacturer's training events. Without these relationships, we wouldn't be able to offer the full range of services we provide.
