Sounds like the "Doorstop" Magnatek had a bad bridge relay in it.
Now the model you have I do not know but the 6300 had two "Sides" if you will. Charger (about 3 amp) and converter (like 40-45 amp; but nasty) it converted `12o VAC into not 12 DC But 12 RMS Rectified DC.. Like I said Nasty.
When not on shore power a relay "Bridged" the two so the battery provided 12 VDC to the house. If that relay was toast.. Well. exactly what you found.
