It must be a simple power or connection issue. I was thinking maybe part of the rig has a wire connection at the battery terminals and that may have loosened or not be connected when the batteries were removed. A beeping LP alarm usually means a lack of 12v power. It's also possible that the converter is not supplying power to the different 12v circuits and that the lights and various 12v devices are getting just enough power from the truck connection. I would definitely replace the batteries and see what happens. Do you have a meter so that you can troubleshoot the electrical system, should that be necessary?
I will know more tomorrow night when I put the batteries back on.
I do have a multi-meter but it's hard to find a ground to test 12v on the range ... plus the wires are stuck up in the cabinet and have a wire nut on it that's so big I can;t get it out! LOL
Hopefully reconnecting the batteries fixes things ... I will follow up tomorrow if this does not work.
Not sure where I would start if it's a problem ... Knew I should have bought a newer trailer! LOL
Just weird that all this worked before when I never had batteries connected to the rig ... then I bought new batteries right before we went camping a month or more ago and when I got done camping and parked in storage I disconnected the ground wire so nothing was being powered in the rig while stored.
Then got it home took out the batteries hooked up shore power and all is fine except for these two things .... Just WEird!!!
