Thanks for replying. Could you explain coach vs. chassis? House and coach mean the same and I like house better. Chassis means engine, cab area etc.
Sorry. 2011 Holiday Augusta 25' Class C. When I disable the house batteries(coach?), the red light by the switch goes off, and the step doesn't work. I assume the step is powered by the coach (house) batteries? Sounds correct.
I understand that that shore power and generator will light up the coach, but without either, shouldn't I be able to "light up" the coach? Yes
The DC circuit (fuse) panel is located adjacent to the AC circuit panel. When connected to shore power, or when the gen is on and the AC circuit breaker for the Main and Converter circuits are on, a green light flashes on the DC fuse panel. As I would expect, if I shut off the converter circuit breaker, the green light goes out as well as the coach lights.
