More than likely you have a CONVERTER (120V to 12V) unit installed and maybe an optional standalone inverter (12V to 120V with no charging portion). You'll need a voltmeter. If you don't have one, you can pick it up cheap at harbor freight. While your coach is plugged into shore power, disconnect your batteries main negative wire. Check the output of the converter. If it's working properly, it should be somewhere around 13.6V (can be a little higher or lower depending on the model of converter). If it's not, then your converter is shot. Replace it. Report back here with your results.
2008 Thor/Four Winds Hurricane. I don't have the inverter info with me, I can get that tonight. It is the factory equipment though if that helps.
