Just for clarification....
You are talking about 'vent fans' that open thru roof to outside when you say 'ceiling fans' VS what one would call a fan hung from ceiling that circulates inside air like used in a residential house.....correct???
(some rigs do have Ceiling Fans like above)
So if it is Vent Fans then when connected to shore power the 'converter' is supplying the DC System BUT when not on shore power your battery is suppose to be supplying the DC System.
Are the Vent Fans only DC items NOT working when NOT connected to shore power (water pump, fridge, lights)????
Battery good..fully charged?
OEM battery (9 plus yrs old) or new battery???
