Troubleshooting Low Power from Shore to Transfer Switch
Question:
I have an 01 cameo 5th wheel, and am loosing power to the transfer switch. Would you know what is between the inlet power cord and the transfer switch?

It sounds like you have a short in your Power Cord wiring as there isn't anything between the power cord and the Go Power Transfer Switch # 34270278 as they are directly wired. I've attached a video of the Go Power Transfer Switch - Quick Connect - 30 Amp # 342GPTS which shows these connections. If you don't use and in-line circuit breaker like # CAM55306 then there has to be an issue with the wiring or the ground on the transfer switch itself.
