12 volt system losing some power john f. eades 11-17-08  
I have a 2007 class c sunseeker. The 12 volt accessories lose some power entermittely. Example--the lights will go dim and then after about a minute will come back to mormal.The fan motor will slow down and than increase to normal speed.

Sounds like a bad ground on the fridge. Every time the compressor cuts in the juice has to go somewhere, and elctricity is like water. It follows the path of least resistance. It's trying to escape so it's leaking through your other systems. Check the plug where it goes into the socket and make sure it's grounded good. That's the third prong on the end of the plug. You can also screw on a ground strap to the back of the fridge and go from there to the stove so it'll have some more metal to ground to. That should stop that crap. Usualy it's a loose ground wire inside the walls of the RV and there's not much other than ripping it apart to get to it. It won't hurt anything so long as you make a new ground for it. Until you do, unplug the fridge. That should end your problem until you make a ground wire or strap.
