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...

The inverter is a xantrex freedom x 1200.
KD4UPL - when I was plugged into shore power and the battery was not in the disconnect position (meaning off) I was unable to pull the slides in, but when I put the battery in the disconnect position (meaning on) I was able to pull the slides in. When you dont have shore power and you do the battery disconnect... it turns everything off. this is to keep the battery from going completely dead.
I will have to look into the refridge on/off switch on the inside. When I purchased the TT the battery was staying charged. Before my last trip, I disconnected the shore power for 24 hrs and it did kill the battery. I assumed after I hooked back up it would charge the battery but I think I need to put the battery on a charger to see if it will charge back up. Its seems the truck or the TT cant charge a dead battery.
