Bad converter?
How do I know if my converter is bad? I has a slight buzzing sound coming from it. The fan is spinning. My slide comes in and out slowly as well. I want to clean the battery cables. They look fine but I would like to eliminate that as a cause. Is it the neg. or pos. that I remove first. Also I have only 2 house batteries. Is it always in pairs of two? If so, if I have enough room in the compartment, could I add two more thus increasing the house battery power on hand.

Completed a one month trip with the family this summer. Have most everything figured out on the RV. The one thing that I haven't figured out is why one time my slide comes in any has plenty of power and then the next time it has barely any. So the question is Inverter on or off when plugged into shore power... Main battery in back of coach on or off when plugged into shore power...and I always keep the battery switch by the door on. Also what is the proper position for all of these when it's store and plugged into shore power. Thanks Rico1.1KViews0likes2CommentsRe: 2006 Coachmen house batteries
Tested batteries at NAPA. They said they were good so I brought them home. Cleaned all connections and left off one rusty washer that was on one of the connections. It is now working as it should. I don't know if it was the rusty water someone had placed on the post before connecting the ground or the minor corrosion on the positive cable but it's working. Thank you everyone for the help.
