Really need a volt reading in the RV and a clamp-on ammeter to do some actual diagnostics.

Although at least verify the fridge and water are off or set to propane only. If the battery was low that converter will also draw significant power for 30 to 60 minutes.


Check the output on that 30 amp generator plug.
U need a TT-30 socket on the generator , a 120v 30amp not a 240v 30 amp.
Its a different prong configuration.
