So that all sounds normal......


So I have to ask: do you have the use/store switched on when on shore power or gen? If not, you will not be able to charge coach batteries. Do you hear the clunk of the coach latching relay when you turn it on or off? ..YES


Lastly, why do you say the coach batteries are not charging when on shore or gen? JUST FROM THE LACK OF LIGHTS ON THE MONITORING PANEL.
Do you have a digital voltmeter NO
that you can use to test across the coach batteries; use/store must be switched on and shore power connected. You should measure approx 13vdc or higher with limited or no DC loads on in the coach.
Hi javelin and thanks again. See adds above. You didn't comment on whether the arch created while hooking up the 2 12 volts might have blown a fuse?
