Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and they all make sense. However, when I read Ticki2 comments it made me think back and it would appear that the converter was never connected to the 12v system. As one of the jobs of the converter is to provide 12v DC power to the 12v system and when the battery is disconnected and the converter powered up, the 12v system in the TC does not work. Also as advised I removed the fuse from the battery circuit and it is called "ShortStopII" and it is rated for 40A, which concerns me as the TC is rated for 35A. Also I checked the fuse and it is fine. I think I will need to bite the bullet and pull the converter back out and potentially rewire the battery circuit directly to the converter.
