A couple times the coach battery loses connection during the night. The first time I just charged the battery with a remote charger so don't know if the battery was dead. The second time I took the battery out and checked it at 13.6 volts. The whole coach is dead I can't even start the generator. I am suspicious of the coach shut off switch and associated solenoid. Any advice on where to start looking? Thanks Ron
 
I would start right at that battery disconnect solenoid. Make sure 12 volts in and out when "On". Could be a fuse between battery and solenoid. Also check frame grounds for corrosion and tightness, slso battery connections.
 
You need to disconnect shore power before measuring battery voltage. Thirteen plus volts is the converter output and tells you nothing about the battery.  A fully charged battery will be 12.5 V (discharged is about 12.0 V). As noted, check connections, particularly grounds.
