Power step
We keep our MH in a storage yard during winter. I charge the batteries every two weeks with the generator and run the motor. Now the last two times I did this the step would not come out when I turned the power switches at the door on.
"Before" charging I test the batteries and they had 6.2 on each (of 6) house batteries and 12.4 on the chassis. I do this to see how they hold a charge. According to the chart I have this is 75% charged. I would think this would be enough to operate the step. Both times after the generator was started the steps operated.
So my question for those smarter than I does there need to be more than a 75% charge to operate these steps? Could there be another issue to look at? During the summer months I never had this issue or last winter either.
