I have a 2009 Aliner Classic. Recently the Elixir power converter died and I replaced it with a Progressive Dynamics 4135.
I used the diagram to hook up all incoming power to the circuit breakers and grounding bars and carefully undid one 12v line at a time from the old converter and reattached them to the new one so that I wouldn't confuse the wiring.
and the fans and lights and recharging all worked again.
BUT......the right hand trailer brake is now on permanently. (Why only one? Aren't they both on the same circuit?)
It has nothing to do with the tow vehicle as it locks up even when not connected to a vehicle. (It also locks up when connected to a vehicle but not to the battery)
It's not the breakaway switch as I disconnected that first thing.
It's not a mechanical problem as it unlocks if I disconnect the battery or pull the fuse on circuit 1. (the blue wire on the old Elixir)
But it stays locked even when I throw the breakers, which makes some sense as they should not be dependent on shore power but would also imply that the converter isn't the problem.
Except that it unlocks if I pull the fuse.
So I am baffled. I feel like I am missing something obvious but clueless what.
Anyone have suggestions?
