12V Power Turns off and on
I just took out a new RV I purchased (93 Gulfstream Conquest). I fully charged the 12V power system by plugging into the house power earlier this week. After fully charging, I disconnected the house power and everything worked fine inside (overhead lights, fridge, oven fan, etc.)
Yesterday I took it camping for the first time and the 12V power was working just fine. About 20 minutes after we departed, I stopped and parked the RV at a friends house. I noticed at that time all the 12V power was off (nothing). None of the overhead lights would come on, the 12V meter tester I had was dead, zero, etc. I decided to go camping anyway and about an hour later we arrived near the campsite and stopped at the grocery store. At that time I checked the 12v system and everything was working fine again. I turned my fridge back on as it went out earlier. I then left and checked into my campsite. Everything worked fine overnight, no issues.
I came back home this morning and again my 12V power was off when I arrived home. I unpacked everything and about a half hour later I check it out and the 12V power system was back on.
Do I need a new converter? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Billy
