On my 2000 Hunter 340 today at the Breaker Panel I plugged in my cell phone charger cord. I had the main panel breaker on and the water pressure breaker on.
Both lights blinked and then went off.
I unplugged the charger cord and found the accessory plug was loose. I could push on it and the breaker lights would go on and off.
I shut off the breakers and tightened the accessory plug about a 1/8 turn. I turned the breakers back on and all work as normal. All the other breakers worked as well and all lights, gauges, propane switch etc. work fine.
But the Accessory Plug will not work.
I opened the panel, I didn't find any signs of burnt, frayed or loose wires. Everything looks good and all wire screws are tight. Nothing is touching behind the panel in the plug area also.
I'm thinking it's a faulty plug and needs to be replaced, but why did it shut the other breakers down? I tried to get a reading on my multimeter from the plug but it shows no power to the plug.
Any ideas or suggestions regarding this situation are welcomed.
Thanks in advance.
