On the Winnie site you did mention "rewired the 12vdc transformer" You did not want to assist us with that tidbit, leave us guessing? But no matter, I have never heard of a 12vdc transformer in my whole career.

I posed the EXACT same question on 3 different sites at about the EXACT same time. Winnieowners, IR2 Winnebago Forum, and Thor. I don't play... this is not a fire drill, I can't use my RV as planned. Do you know the cost of a lost RV day?
I guess I wanted to see the true effectiveness of each site
I gave the Winnie site the insight of the rewired 12vdc transformer because they asked the right question
But for all on Thor, part of why it went back to dealer was that I discovered the 12vdc transformer was miswired (reversed polarity). I discovered that when do a System Test with the EC-30- and noticed it could not detect (sense) shore power. So while the had to repair that, I also questioned why did they install the 12vdc transformer AFTER the the ATS? The only true way to know if Shore power is on / off the transformer MUST be BEFORE the ATS.
What the 12vdc transformer does is send a 12v signal to pins 13 & 14 on the EC-30 controller, that is how the EC -30 know shore power is on or off. Based on how your EC-30 is set up it knows when to turn the genset on/off automatically when shore power is loss, or when genset is on and shorepower comes on, it will turn the generator off
