In my Fleetwood Jamboree the isolator solenoid should engage when you turn the ignition key - you may have wiring or fuse issue. When I had similar problem I just ran a wire from an empty slot in fuse box through fire wall grommet to the solenoid - the fuse slot of use energized with key turning so it was a quick/inexpensive fix.
Clever fix. Did that mean running a wire all the way from the engine power distribution center to the house battery compartment?
Can you tell me which fuse would operate the isolator solenoid? Would it be in the engine power distribution box or in the fuse box by my house battery?
I'll be at the RV tomorrow and will look into the alternator output voltage, potential wiring weirdness, and whether there is a delay unit.
Thanks for everyone's help! I'll report back as soon as I have more information.
