    Granvil, I am not aware of any repair facility in the area......don't know what type inverters you have, but when my one of my Vanner inverters stopped working, a good firm rap on it with the butt of my hand must have jolted a relay and it has been working ok since. (about 2 years ago). Might be worth a try. Good luck!

    Granville, I just went through an inverter failure in my Bus. Learned a lot about the system and how it worked. Sent mine off to N.M. and installed a spare. Don't know what model you have, mine are Heart 2500's. Call me if I can be of any help.

    Kevin, If I had hair like the "Fonz" I would agree! I actually was a little hacked off, and that was my last straw!

    Thanks for the responses,I am thinking seriously about going to more modern setup, currently have Trace inverters. If that's the case probably just drive it back to Fla.
