Hey everyone!
We have a 2004 Salem 31' bunkhouse that we purchased from my in-laws. The camper sat for a year or two.
This year we have been having intermittent electrical problems.
We replaced the battery hoping that might solve some issues but looks like they are still lingering.
What happens: I leave the camper plugged in at my house 24/7. Last night the carbon monoxide alarm was going off because battery was dead. Lights barely work. The dang camper is plugged in, why is this happening. Today at the campground the same thing is happening. Randomly lights start dimming and things stop working. Ac, fridge, outlets, etc.
I flip breakers and eventually it works again.
What I think the problem is: I'm wondering if the inverter itself is going bad or maybe something easy like a bad ground or something?
Bonus info: if we unhook battery, lights don't work even when plugged into hookup.
