AC Not running unplugged
Hi there,
Hope anyone can help me on this, I am new on the camping world. I just bought a 97 Elkhorn TruckCamper (cabover), it was working good, but when I am not plugged to the wall the AC outlets, air conditioning and refrigerator does not work. When i plug it it all works. So I think there is something wrong with the wiring maybe? something is not letting the current from the battery flow to the AC outlets.
A car mechanic told me that maybe it only works when you are plugged, but I imagine that the Camper has a built in DC/AC converter right?
Hope anyone can give me some info on what to check. Also if you have a technician that know how to fix this things would be great. I am around LA and going south in a couple of days. I have found that the RV service centers are very expensive, but any recommendation on a cheap one would be nice.
Thanks!!
Peter
