ProPower Overload With Nothing Plugged in, restart clears it

[BRDVPRA]

Hey All,
I'm now at 120k ish miles and i'm starting to get notifications on occasion (twice in the last month) that to many things are plugged in and the ProPower system trips the breaker and needs to reset with absolutely nothing plugged in. It will do this continuously until I stop and restart the truck and then it goes away. Of course my fear is it will stay this way at some point. I ran the codes and none appear to be related to the ProPower system. Any experience or thoughts appreciated!

I seem to remember that a few others had something similar happen and that the dealer replacing the panel in the bed resolved it. Not sure which yours has but the panel for the 2 kw system isn't terribly expensive. At around 250 can be replaced in about 15 min if faulty it's not a terribly involved fix. Well provided this is the issue of course.

Might double check the connections to the panel under the bed first to make sure there's nothing wrong there, and that the seals around the plug covers and GFCI are still in good shape. Especially if it does this more frequently on wet days.
