First: with limited shore power while loading RV, air conditioner in front was on and refrigerator was cooling. Day 2: air conditioner stopped as well as frig. Nothing would reset without starting up the engine. All would work for a short time on shore power, then go off. Started generator and it too would only stay on for a short period of time and only restart after starting the engine
Second: 2 days into our journey after driving for appx 5 hours, we came back to the coach and again no air. We are plugged into 50amp shore power. Again, we started coach engine and all worked the same as above, but only for a short time
Mobile RV repair tested the 2- 6 amp aux batteries and noted as bad. Now here is the interesting part:
1) both 6 amp aux batteries were removed for safety precautions, but they did not have replacement batteries available till next day
2) with no aux batteries, our panel still reads as though there are aux battery power
3) air worked for a while, but shut down and required n engine restart to start working again even though we are on 50amp shore power
4) refrig has same issue even when it is running on propane
Any ideas as to why we have to start the engine to run these electrical services while hooked up to 50amp shore power?
Spending most of the night restarting the engine to maintain refrig temp as we are living in the rig for the next 4 months
