Is your refridgerator a Samsung ? I have a Generac 6500 and after 5 minutes it trips the GFCI. I'm give it a shot to see. Will a 50ft 14 gauge cord be suffice also? Generac tech support says i needed to purchase an "electronic portable power conditioner" due to the circuitry in our Samsung refridgerator. any thoughts on that please?

@perryrob We have a Whirlpool refrigerator. I used the same size cord, and it worked with no issues. I can't speak on what to do if you have a samsung fridge. All I can say is what worked for me. After our last hurricane, Beryl, we ran our generator for a week without any refrigerator issues.

Valuable information for an extremely frustrated guy in a storm. Thank you! It made sense as soon as I saw it. I completely forgot about inrush current... a tree sticking through your roof can do that to you. The fridge starting under load was too much for a 13a outlet... 20.00 at Harbor Freight for the 3 way 30a adapter, problem solved. My old generator did not have GFCI outlets, too much load would just stall it. This new one wouldn't even load up before it would trip the GFCI, but using the 30a, can run 2 fridges and all the charger/internet/tv junk just fine. It really made sense when the second fridge kicked on and I heard the genset load up for a couple of seconds... oh yeah, that's some current. Anyway, THANKS, I needed that. :)

I have a 2019 F150 XLT 4x4 and I have been having the same problem with my camera. It's off and on with the x-ray camera and some times it just states "it's not working, go see your dealer" I was going to buy a camera and replace it myself, but now that I know it's a Ford issue, I'll take it in and let them replace it. Now that I have read all the comments I don't have to worry myself about it. Thanks for the updates everyone.

You should have gotten a recall notice by now. Known issue affecting "safety" so it should be repaired for free. Had mine done this morning. Based on your video description, I am assuming you already had it replaced. If so, if they charged you anything for the replacement, 1 - go back, 2 - get your money back, 3 - Have them verify the model they installed is the correct model for the replacement under the recall, 4 - If not, have them replace it again to ensure it doesn't happen again.

I took deliver on my F150 last Thursday. The backup camera worked fine during the test drive, then, while I was signing purchase papers, the salesman comes in and tells me that since he had it washed the reverse camera is gunnybag. A known issue he says. Now I am on the list for a new camera. This is crap. There have been camera issues for years with Ford. And they have been selling that trailer backup application like crazy, and it is worthless without the camera.

I got a decent counter offer, seeing as they would not do either of my request. Anything is better than nothing.

My 2020 F-150 Lariat. Exact same issue. Screen goes, black, blue, or rainbow. Problem is intermittent. Dealer said they have seen many of these, and my forum search confirmed it. They tried a new camera, and I lost my trajectory lines and proximity colors. Supposedly, Ford is aware and getting a new batch of cameras. But, it may take a couple months to replace their usual stockpile. I heard October/November. I think there is both a software and hardware component going on here.
