Here is what I think. Your converter is putting out full output. It's not getting to the battery. Put your multimeter on the converter output terminals and see what it says. It should say 13.7 volts. Put your multimeter on the battery. It should say the same as the converter output terminals.
If the two do not have the same reading, either the negative or the positive to the battery is loose. Run a jumper cable between the battery positive to the converter positive. Did it fix it? No? Run the jumper cable from the battery negative to the converter negative.
Hot means working hard. Not broken.

Sounds like the metal laminations of the converters transformer are vibrating. An annoying but not dangerous condition that happens to xfmr's sometimes. the noise changes with items turned on because it changes the xfmr's load.

More troublesome is the battery voltage. 12V is rather low, is it really just 12V or is it more like 13.2 or more with the rv plugged in? If it's only 12.0 then the converter is shot.
