Any idea if the power cord or battery charger has been replaced? As Pianotuna said it sounds like something is wired backwards.
I have no idea what has been replaced. He bought this one used a month or so ago. I'm helping with mechanical "maintenance catch up" and fixing some of the mechanical issues with the chassis, engine, suspension. I'm new the the "home" part of motorhomes.
So I think I'm hearing I need to check in the cubby where the big power cord for the motor home is, and see if the end of that cord where it attaches to the motorhome coachwork wiring system is connected correcly (hot to hot, neutral to neutral, ground to ground and to the chassis). That could be wired backwards, I guess. The big power cord looks newer than a lot of the other parts on this one, so it might have been replaced.
