What should the voltage of a Prevost battery be?

What should the voltage of a Prevost battery be?

Personally I consider voltages lower than 12 volts per battery (or 24 volts) or higher than 14.3 volts (28.6 volts) to be cause for concern. These are my values, and depending on your coach, your specific type of chassis batteries, and how your coach is set up your values may be a little different.

Why is my 12 volt battery not working?

Your RV’s 12-volt system runs off of the batteries, and if they are dead, damaged, or undercharged, that could stop your 12-volt system from working. Likewise, your inverter/converter is also essential to your 12-volt electrical system, and that could be the source of the problem.

Which is the only fuse panel for a 12V converter?

If that is the only fuse panel that the converter goes to, then that is the only fuse panel. The converter has to go to the fuse panel to power the 12v system so unless it ties off and goes to another panel this should be the only one. If you have any questions or concerns, please chat, email or call us at 1-855-706-3536.

Can a 12 volt power converter run without a battery?

Lastly, check the batteries a properly working converter should run the entire 12 volt system even without a battery (though it’s not recommended due to the tendency of converters to let transient AC voltage through, the battery acts like a “filter”).

Where is the 24 Volt Post on a Prevost coach?

Connect the red lead to a 24 volt post on the bank of chassis batteries (refer to the wiring diagram on the inside of the RH side chassis door). Your multimeter used in this fashion is gong to give you precise readings. The gauge inside the coach may be less precise because there is a current drop when the voltage passes through a long run of wire.

Why is the alternator on a Prevost bus 24 volts?

Since the bus chassis alternator is 24 volts, and since the batteries are wired to provide both 12 and 24 volts there must be a means of insuring the batteries are charged in such a way as to insure a 12 volt load will not pull down some of the batteries in the set and not others.

When did the Prevost parts catalog come out?

Prevost’s exclusive computerized parts catalog provides immediate access to all coach assemblies, subassemblies, and components. The catalog can “explode” any aspect/component of the coach. The system includes all coaches dating back to the 1980 model year – down to the “nuts and bolts.”

Where is the multimeter on a Prevost chassis?

You can do the same system check with your multimeter. Connect the black lead to a bare metal spot on the chassis. Connect the red lead to a 24 volt post on the bank of chassis batteries (refer to the wiring diagram on the inside of the RH side chassis door). Your multimeter used in this fashion is gong to give you precise readings.

What does lower voltage mean on a Prevost bus?

Anything lower or higher is an indication there may be a problem. Keep in mind however these values are for the chassis when the bus is not connected to shore power or the generator is not running. These are also voltage values taken at the batteries with an accurate multimeter.

What kind of electrical systems do Prevost coaches use?

PREVOST ELECTRICAL SYSTEMSPREVOST ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS Our coaches have a number of systems that seem mysterious. They are mysterious only until we get to know and understand them, at which point we see and appreciate their logic and relative simplicity.
