I have a 1975 Overlander. The Univolt was not working but the DC circuits worked OK on battery power.
I recently installed a Boondocker inverter and all systems appeared to be working properly.
Finally after having worked on the trailer for over a year my wife and I took our first trip.
As we did not have shore power so operated on battery power. My fridge is a newer model and requires DC power to operate on propane. When we went to bed everything was working properly.
The next morning the fridge was not working and I had no DC lights. I thought that the battery must be dead so I started the generator. Everything then worked well on AC power including DC lights fridge and water pump. I ran the generator for 6 hrs to charge the battery.
When I shut the generator off I had no power. I checked the battery and it was good.
I checked the distrubution pannel and had power on the positive side as well as the negative side. I contacted a test light to the negative battery post and toutched both the positive side and negative side of the distribution pannel. I had power on both sides however the DC interior lights and other DC circuits will not work.
I thought possibly that I had a short in the distribution pannel so replaced it with a new DC fuse distribution pannel. The problem persists.
Would anyone have any idea of what may be the problem? I would really appreciate it if you could help me out.
