    Doublewide trailer electrical
    Hi I am new at this so be patient please. I have a double wide trailer. The lights on one side were going off and on as though some one was turning them off. I cut all the lights etc off. Then during the night allllll electric went off on the one side. Today I turned the a/c on to see if it would work and it blew just air and the electric came on, on the non working side. If you use too much on that one bad side all the ligths dimn really bad. Soooo what do you make of this and am I haunted. Thanks for you time, asap on answer would be great for every one has an answer and every one wants money. Life. Raven

    There is a serious bad connection somewhere, unfortunately I cannot tell you exactly, as it can be at the meter, or in the panel.

    The AC coming on and causing the "dead" side to come alive can mean the problem is in the panel, but again really difficult to be sure.

    Best I can offer is to suggest that you contact a food service electrician, not one that just does construction, as this problem may be difficult to trace down, and good troubleshooting skills are needed.
