2003 Fleetwood Terry Quantum

Hello All,
I had never been in an RV in my life. Recently divorced and am now renting/living in a Terry Quantum 5TH Wheel. The name plate says built 8/03. It is hooked to AC power but the DC system is dead. My friend/landlord replaced the batteries and this took care of the problem for a day or so. Now everything is dead again including the thermostat for the rooftop AC so it is freaking hot.

I understand there is an AC/DC converter/battery charger. I suspect it is blown.
I can not find it.I have crawled, looked, poked, you name it and can't find the thing.
Does ANYBODY know where it might be located?
Thank you in advance.

    They can be located anywhere. I accidentally found mine mounted behind a panel back of my basement storage area. There is no access to the area without removing the back panel to the basement storage. I always assumed it would be located in a compartment behind my fuse panel, wrong!! I plan to cut an access panel some time this winter just so I don't have to remove the back panel to get to it. Some design engineers really make you go huh!!

    I owned a couple of Quantum's built 04 and 07. They were rather cheap, but had a great floor plan. I think I saw all that stuff behind a basement wall. Been awhile so I can't say for sure. It could change from one year to another. Take the basement walls down and you will probably find it. I would take the one off facing the rear first.

    As others have said it can be hiding anywhere. I found mine behind main compartment wall mounted under the bathroom floor under the toilet. Why, I don't know I replaced it and mounted it down behind the main fuse box.

    My 05 Prowler which is near identical to the Quantum has the charger/converter behind a door on the basement wall (Door Side).
