2013 Trail Lite Electrical Question
I was curious about my 12 volt lightning. If I disconnect my battery while hooked to shore power my lights will not work. Does my battery have to be hooked up to complete the cycle or do I have anot...

If you take the battery of of the circuit, there is no way for the 12 volt DC power to get to the lights, fridge, furnace or water pump.
SIGH.
Absolutely and totally wrong.
MOST converters are designed to provide perfectly good 12 V power with or without a battery in place. Some will not.
The OP needs to hook up to shore power and then check the voltage at the battery, with a good battery in place......to see if the converter is working at all or not. As other posts indicated, probably not, as evidenced by seeing the same voltage at the battery whether or not the shore power is connected.
