Coachman Freedom Express Heater Question
Our 2012 Freedom Express TT heater does not work when hooked to power. It works fine when generator is off or unplugged from AC. What could be the problem?

1. Unless Pilot model water heater
2. Electronic ignition Water heater and any furnace on his model requires 12 volts to operate.
3. WHAT is strange unless he misposted---He states it works ONLY on battery power. NOT when 120 is connected to the RV. That would point to a Converter system like OLD systems that has a relay in the Converter. This relay engaged when 120 power was applied and ran the RV on Converted 12 volt and the battery was out of the system, but being charged. IF he has such a system, that would point to the Charger/converter section bad and that relay has disengaged the battery until he disconnects the 120 source. BUT, he would have no 12 volt systems working including lights.
4. The OP needs to clarify what appliance and make sure he posted the correct info on Shore/APU connection. Doug
