Ok, I'm starting to understand.
I had time today to work on it. Here is what's happening:
I went in today to check everything out. Checked voltage to all of the fuses on the converter (it has 9 of them). The 6 on the left were showing 12.0 volts and the 3 on the right were showing 13.6 volts. The "C" buss was 13.6 and the voltage at the battery was 13.6. Lights were showing 12.0 volts. I left the camper and I wanted to check at the fridge before I went in the house. It was 18.2 volts!!!!
I figured out that if I turn lights on in the camper all voltages pass, BUT...... When I have no draw in the camper (everything turned off) the 6 fuses on the left at the converter show 18.0 volts (along with the back of the fridge)and the 3 to the right still show 13.6.
This is why I didn't get the error camping last weekend, I always had a draw. Lights, fan, A/C, etc.
Its got to be the converter, correct?
