Power Problem

If I have this right, you say you turn off the power at the pedestal (I assume flip the breaker / pull the plug) and the coach goes dark.... correct?

The lights are 12V DC and not AC. Sounds to me like your Use/Store switch is the in Store position.

When the Use/Store is in Store when there is AC power, the Converter will still provide DC voltage even though the batteries are disconnected in the Store position. Then when you pull the AC power, there is no battery power to the lights so they go out.

Make sure your Use/Store switch is in the Use position.

Also, the only AC power you will get without Shore or Generator power is if you have an Inverter and the Inverter only provides limited AC power to specific outlets if the Inverter is turned on. However, it will not provide power for the lights because the lights only run on 12V DC power.
