Discovered that the alternator was not charging the house batteries when driving. The leveling system would show "low voltage" unless on shore power or generator. The converter is charging the house batteries.

Purchased the relay in the diagram above, that is a Intellitec brand. The supplier I used for the BIRD does not carry the Trombetta brand.

Will post results after the week end and maybe knowledge on which unit was bad.
I hope it solves your problem. Before you disconnected the BIRD, did you check and see what voltage it was receiving? When I checked mine, I found that the voltage being fed into the BIRD (supposedly from the house batteries) was different than the house batteries. I don't know what the BIRD was hooked to, but it was not the house batteries. When I hooked the wire to the house battery side of the Trombetta, everything worked normally.
