inverter not charging the battery
2 Questions - On our 4th TT and stepped up to a 2022 mesa ridge last year. First TT with a inverter. Only been able to take it out 2 times. Had it hooked up to our house on a 30amp while not traveling...

So y'all seem pretty confident that every trailer manufacturer wires their disconnect switches (the red one) the same way - every time, every vehicle, no exceptions.
That however is an over generalization. Mine turns off everything; absolutely nothing remains on. It is simply a battery, the switch, the one and only wire between them, and downstream breaker blocks; and it came wired from the factory that way. I highly doubt mine is an anomaly.
The last trailer I had worked generally the same way, except it had a fuse in the line at the battery which you pulled out to cut all power (it had no disconnect switch).
