thank you all for great advice. a couple comments...
I definitely do not want to modify something and void my warranty. However, would be good to know what the cause is or sequence of events that cause it. I do not want to haul my rig into the shop (at least an hour drive) they try it for 5 minutes, it works, and they send me away.
We did a complete inspection and 12V worked before we left the sellers lot, but intermittent issue got us.
My meter is a Fluke T5-600. Been very reliable, but it is not new - maybe it is getting old and slightly out of cal? It did read 13 and not 13.0, this meter auto scales, I cannot change the scale, I believe it would display 12.6 if it were 12.6. I do have a cheaper meter, maybe I double check with that one.
We do not have a solar panel. We do not have shore power available at the storage site and it really does not work well bringing home with our driveway busy street layout of our home, etc.
I will do some more investigating this weekend.
