location of converter

Mine was the lower part of the breaker panel. It isn't always a separate component, ya know ?

I pulled the breaker panel out, no converter there. thanks

If it's a separate deck mount converter, it could be most anywhere, not necessarily very near the electrical panel. Attempting to trace the wires from the house batteries or the DC distribution panel may be helpful; the converter would usually connect to one or the other of these components more or less directly. There are many variations in the exact wiring topology, though.

Some converters (particularly the older ferroresonant ones) you can locate by tracking down their sound. Some are more or less noiseless, which is great all the time except when you need to find it.

There's a panel in the crawl space, I will try that one next. Thanks

Can't help on location but I'm curious how you know it needs replacing if you can't locate it?

Probably because its a Wfco ? :)

9865 is a deck mount WFCO. It needs an outlet and a battery connection. Follow the thick wires.

It is a wfco. You can check at the battery when the lights dim with a volt meter. The volts will either go up or down when the lights dim. This determines if it is the battery or the converter going bad. My test ended up being the converter that was bad. My luck I had a spare new battery in case it was the storage battery. LOL

The test with lights dimmer would only show that "something" is wrong. Either converter, or battery, or both.

Not familiar with your type of RV but on many it is located along side the bed. You will see a vent cover and it is behind that.
