If you are referring to a three stage charger - yes the coach's three stage charger can charge a low battery. Whether it will charge a dead battery depends on why it is dead. A bad cell or low water battery cannot be charged. Your coach probably has a bi-directional relay delay (BIRD) located near the house battery compartment. The BIRD is controlled by a Trombetta controller. With the coach on shore or generator power, you can check for proper BIRD operation by measuring the voltage at the chassis battery with a voltmeter. A voltage above 12.8 volts indicated the BIRD is working properly.
