97 Hurricane 31G electrical problem

[krk11ga]

Recently, when I connect to shore line, not everything comes on. TV system, microwave, outlets, fridge all work, but lights are using battery power and A/C units will not power up. Wondering if it is converter or electrical
distribution center thingy? Anyone have similar problems?

Are the house batteries charged? Converter may not be working.

Is your MH 50 amp, if so I would check breakers, both in the MH and on the post outside. One side could be tripped. If 30 amp it still could be a breaker in the MH.

It is 50AMP, checked ALL breakers, and house batteries charge when chassis is running. Batteries deplete when connected to shore.

I agree with Mr. Nash. Sounds like the converter is not working. You should be able to findthe converterbehind your electrical panel or where your shore power enters your RV. Good luck and please keep us posted.

Thanks to everyone for their help! I will be looking for the converter this weekend-it's just so hot right now in Atlanta. I'll keep ya posted.
