we have another issue, which I'm thinking could be that our converter my be going out because the 12v lights go dim & then later brighten up. What do y'all think?
I'm having the same problem, so I'm also interested in what y'all think.
That IS a classic converter issue, at least it was on our coach. Also, fan started running more and more, then it was on almost all the time.
Check your batts. What happened with us was the campground lost power for 3-4 days in a storm. It was also incredibly cold at that time. The batteries (old) froze, and we didn't know it. They were damaged, and the converter was working it's butt of trying to maintain a charge on them. Replaced the batts, all was well, except the converter had been overworked so badly that it was dying.
$150 on Amazon gets you a pretty nice converter, same size...easy swap.
