No power to trailer when battery is connected
I have a 2011 Milan Eclipse 5th wheel and am experiencing some electrical problems. I just returned from a 10 day trip and everything worked great. At home, I plugged the trailer on to "shore" power while unloading and all the electric components were working (ie air conditioner etc). I turned everything off after I was done unloading. An hour later I came out to the trailer and nothing electric was working...trailer still plugged in to shore power (30 amps).
Here's what I've done so far in terms if troubleshooting:
1-fuses and circuit breaker are all good (even the fuses behind the converter IOTA 45)
2-disconnected the battery and the charge is good
3-could not find any inline fuses by the battery
4-with the battery disconnected, the trailer's electrical system is fully functional when connected to shore power
5-I reconnected the battery and nothing works with or without shore power connected
I can't figure out why the trailer gets power when hooked up to shore power but as soon as I hook up the battery, nothing works.
Battery is connected correctly...
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Matt
