UPDATE: Doesn't seem to be the converter. I took the advice of several on this forum and didn't even ask to test the old battery. I just went ahead and purchased two new 6 volt batteries (Trojan brand) and plastic housing for each. installed the batteries and everything seems to be working good. We've run the heater several times and it's no longer cycling the fan speed from low to high. Thank you for all the help and advice. It's greatly appreciated!
P.S. All this too place in Idaho Falls, Idaho. We are now in Bozeman, Montana on our way to Minnesota. :)
I would check the new batteries and converter? If you buy two new batteries they will be charged up and everything will work fine. If the converter is bad your batteries will be low again after a few days. An easy test is to check the battery voltage with the generator off. Then start the generator and check the voltage again. You should see the battery voltage go up to the mid 13v to mid 14v range. If the voltage doesn't change your converter is bad or you have a blown fuse.
