Is that harder than it sounds or a non-professional?
Sounds like your Trombetta solenoid may have failed - common issue. An ACE will charge both house AND chassis batteries when plugged into SP if the BIRD/Trombetta are working correctly. As I said, it should be in your battery compartment and is easy to replace. They look pretty much like the old Ford starter relays. This is what I replaced mine with several years ago - remember, Trombetta is a brand name - you just need a continuous duty, low draw solenoid that can handle the main current when closed:
