Jim,
As far as I know the connection
was not to any of the connections to the 12 volt wires leaving the box.
That was my original theory was that the converter was just old, and developed
some sort of electrical problem. Dead short in the 12 V system is ruled
out due to the (12V) fuses not blowing. Logic tells me a dead short
should knock out a fuse immediately. My next step will be to check the
voltage leaving the converter. In talking with my RV dealer, he says the
100 ft extension cord running to the house should not cause the problem,
as there isn't much amp draw. Although he said something could be faulty
in the cord. I still have my sights set on the cord though. Seems when
they had the trailer in the shop, I remember stepping inside and they had
numerous lights on. You'd think the technician would have noticed the lights
going on, and off. But, I don't think that was the case. At this time,
I need to rule out the possibility of the cord, and check the voltage.
