Glad you found the problem. I've seen enough bad terminals on battery cables (in various vehicles/applications) to try to remember to check them whenever there's a problem; it's not a rare condition.
Sometimes it's easier and just as cost effective to buy a whole new premade cable, particularly if the other end is showing signs of corrosion or whatever. Generally you're looking for a "switch to starter" cable of an appropriate gauge and length.
By the way, the WFCO 9855 is almost certainly an upgrade from the original converter. It's a reasonably modern three-stage converter, though I gather sometimes recalcitrant to switch into bulk mode (or whatever they call their high-speed charge mode).
