I am a newbie to RV living....please help as I am afraid to touch anything....
I am getting an errot message on my inverter. I have a Jayco Grayhawk 2016. The error is E05 OL. Can I turn off the main power in the RV to reset it?

That is an overload message. Check the reset button on the INVERTER
your E05 OL error is indicating an overload situation where the primary shore power is still available and getting a redundancy error from your power distribution panel. Most likely the pass through breaker has tripped on your inverter

press and hold the power button for 15 seconds....if there's an LED on the panel, wait for it to flash until you release. Should cycle itself then.

I know of only two ways to reflash an electronic device with self diagnostics....reset button or power cycle. Most chip controls I've dealt with all use an E5 or E05 to represent power deviations outside of the acceptable range such as a brownout or momentary increase.
So, I went to the search you see in the page header, and entered "inverter E05 error" and found several posts on this site that relate to your problem and things others did to fix. Good Luck.

Shore Power
What is the shore power? Is that the outside plug or the inside power button?

Shore power is the outside plug, it connects your coach to 120V alternating current (AC). The inside switch connects/disconnects your battery which is 12V direct current (DC). Are you plugged in or not plugged in when you get the error code? Do you know the model number of the inverter you have? On my Magnum Dimensions inverter, E05 indicates low battery voltage. Are your batteries fully charged?

Success
Thanks everyone for your help.
I did shut the inside power but nothing happened then I went outside and did the same. Left for 30 minutes came back and turned on the inverter and it had reset itself. Looks like the shore power briefly shut was the key...
I am working in the Badlands this season..been in the 100's so I did not want to lose power....
Thanks again...I am learning...

Colleen - I'm in a 2016 with the same inverter. Mine will throw E05 from time to time. Usually when I'm powering *down* the generator.
There's an inverter on/off button on the panel. I just power the inverter off, count to five, then back on. Error code clears.

Sorry for Delay
Thanks for the reply.
I just unplugged the source power and it reset but will try your suggestion next. This is my second season. I work at national parks for months so long term camping.
Nice to find someone with the same RV. I love mine. Can you flush, clean or whatever your toilet with the shower wand? Or is it best to use the hose? My tank is okay I just think it can be good to flush occasionally.

Does your black tank have a sprayer inside the tank? Our 2018 has a sprayer inside the tank that helps. Our unit has a separate water hook up right below the regulator water hook up that feeds water directly to the black tank. I do not use a regulator when I hook water hose to it to flush and drain the black tank. This gives good pressure to the sprayer and does a good job. Has a back flow prevention valve but I still use a separate water hose.

I have a 2016 Jayco Greyhawk and it does have a separate connection to clean the tank. The tank does have a sprayer. One just has to make sure that the black tank valve is in an open position when you flush out the tank

What RPR and Daniel have already said - the bottom hose inlet on ours should be labeled Black Tank. Hook up a water hose to it, and there are spray jets inside the black tank that'll clean and rinse it.

Can you send a photo? My black tank has a silver handle that you pull to open it to empty. I am not sure about a separate connection??? So you are saying that you hose into the tank from the outside and do not go through the toilet?

On ours where you screw in your fresh water hose there is another connection right below it where you screw in hose to flush black tank. You do not have to disconnect hose for fresh water to the RV. Just close the gray tank drain valve and open the black tank drain valve. Turn water on to hose to black tank. You can hear the sprayer.

Wow...I did not know that...please bear with me....does the black tank have to be filled at a certain level and how long would I run the hose? Also, should I then drain the gray tank as well?
You guys are awesome....
