Help…about to leave for AZ & have a problem

I've had my camper plugged in to 115 Volt outlet for several days. Tried to get the slide out and found that my 2 12V batteries are about 11 volts.

1.Plugged in a battery charger over night and they looked good at over 13 volts.

2. Disconnected the battery charger and plugged in to the house again. Two days later the batteries are at 9 volts.

In the past I never had a battery issue while plugged in to 115 power.

  • your battery needs replacing. after it's been charging and before you measure the voltage disconnect from the charging source and let the battery "rest" for 30-60 minutes. have you checked the water level?

    re: the slides...have you tried to retract them while plugged into shore power?
