I just figured if L1 was showing 127 Volts but 0 Amps, that there was something wrong with that Line. The only thing wrong was that there wasn't enough of a power demand to use both Lines.
That's not how a properly wired 50A service works. Your rig is wired to try and equalize the load on both L1 and L2. you'll find one AC wired to L1 and the second AC wired to L2. Similarly your washer/dryer will be on one leg and your microwave and water heater will be on the other leg.Some of your outlets will be on one leg and others will be on the other leg. You can verify this by looking at your breaker panel - it should be set up, with labels, showing which circuits are L1 and which are L2.
