SO.. I did the following after disconnecting the battery (it was connected correctly) and unplugged the shoreline:
1. I checked the 12v fuse between battery and DC panel (close to battery on pos wire) (not blown)
2. I Checked the reverse polarity fuses on the converter itself (two 30a fuses), (not Blown)
3. I check the ground off the battery going to the chassis mine (not loose - all good)
4. Check the fuse at battery again. But this time I pulled it out to inspect for corrosion on the fuse connection. Metal looked dull with a hint of green. So I replaced it anyway.
5. Checked the battery with a volt meter and it is fully charged.
6. Reconnected the battery. Entered the trailer is looked at the following:
- Fridge (working)
- radio (working)
- Lights (beeped - power went down.... but, then came back to normal)
Now the problem is gone.I reconnected the shore line to my house for a while... then went out .. unplugged... turned on the lights with no beep.
SO.... was it the fuse?... or my patience with not waiting long enough with the lights?
Cheers!
