If all your other systems are working as they should on shore power, generator or house batteries if they are fully charged, then you probably have a problem with your BIRD or Trombetta or similar system. See the below link to Ed Felkers Axis/Vegas manual many if the systems on the ACE are the same or very similar to the Axis/Vegas.

Page 50 and 53-4 discuss the charging system and how it works. (Page #s could be slightly different if I do not have the most recent edition) The one in my Axis was wired incorrectly from the factory so shore power/generator did not charge the engine batteries. Others have had similar problems, usually traced to a bad or incorrectly wired BIRD.
