But if that does not sound strange to the rest of you than I will roll with it :-). Do you think there should be a clicking sound of a solenoid when I depress the emergency start button? I really would like to find the bird. I will look again when the sun comes up :-)

If you are plugged into SP there should be no draw on either the house or the chassis batteries as the converter should be charging the house batteries at 13.1+ VDC and the Trombetta should be closed to also allow the converter to charge the chassis battery at the same voltage.
If you are not plugged into SP the Trombetta should be open (de-energized) and the batteries isolated from each other.
You will only hear the Trombetta close and open when using the Emergency Start switch if NOT plugged into SP. When plugged into SP the Trombetta is closed most of the time.
