My guess on the converter going bad is someone yanked the breakaway cable and brakes were activated for months. Not sure if that constant drain would cause that? A constant drain should not cause a converter problem. But replaced the breakaway switch and pulled the living room lighting fuse, replaced converter and all has been good for a month now. Always plugged into shore power.
I had no blown or bad fuses anywhere.
Ya Im talking about the leads between the converter and the fuse box, when disconnected from the converter, have continuity until I pull the Living room fuse. No power to the RV and battery disconnected during that continuity test. Every RV has loads that cannot be switched off like smoke detectors, etc.
Sounds like I should disconnect all the lights on that circuit next and test again. Thanks for the help. Ill test by removing the leads at the converter so nothing on the circuit can possibly be ON, completing the circuit.
