THOR #11649
Rv power outage

We have been living in our Thor quantum for two months. All was good until last night when we lost power during that storm. We are still out of power until Tomorrow and are trying To get use of battery with intermittent use of generator. We just finished using the generator and thought battery was recharged, but when generator was turned off, nothing works except the fridge. No lights. No fans.
I don’t see that a breaker is flipped. The battery status says 13.4. We turned on the engine thinking that would recharge. But still nothing turns on, fridge still running. Any suggestions ?

Did you by chance accidentally place the “use/store” in store?

had kind of similar problem, there a number connections around the coach where the heavy battery cables are bolted, solenoids, connector, i found some loose causing intermittent charging of battery. and watch for corrosion a heavy storm can add just enough moisture to loose connection

Good news is we got power back this morning. Everything works fine.
But I have this error message flashing on xantrex panel “E05” alternating with “ol” Should I turn off xantrex and click “store” in the battery switch just to give everything a rest?
