converter
I have a 2003 Coachmen Catalina 29 FT Class C. When I plug into electric the coach's ceiling lights do not come on shouldn't there be inverter for the coach to make 12 volts. Thanks

Yes when I turn on the battery the lights come on. when I turn off the battery and turn on the electric no lights.
I think your converter (assuming it's present and working) is connected to the battery side of the 12V switch, not the load side. I'm pretty sure that's how my '98 Coachmen is wired up, and I can't think of any great reason not to do it that way. (That's not to say that it wouldn't also be reasonable to connect it on the other side of the disconnect switch, just that there's no big reason I can think of to prefer one or the other.)
