Replacement Ammeters and Volt Meters
Guys,
On my 2003 coach the ammeters and voltmeters are located above the driver in the cabinet. As you can see from the picture (sorry about being sideways). My L1 reads 81V and 0 amps. My L2 reads 120V and 12 amps. I am parked at camp Newell plugged in with AC running. Clearly I have a problem with these gauges.
Newell says that they cannot get them. Have anyone replaced their gauges? If so, can you provide a source.
Cheers,
bill

Bill,
I recently replaced all my panel meters with Shurite Meters from Allied Electronics in Ft Worth, TX, www.alliedelec.com, 800-433-4700. May be worth a shot to see if they could match up yours.

I doubt the gauges themselves are at fault.
I strongly suspect something else is going on.

it does seem unlikely that the gauges are both bad. the easiest way to check is to swap the gauges from L1 to L2. just make sure all power is off including the inverter. (although the inverter doesnt register on my meters). i would do that before spending alot of time and money on other gauges. i happen to really like the analog gauges. just simpler
