Hi all, I'm new to the forums here. I see a lot of great info, but I'm still in need of help.
So the RV is a 2002 Fleetwood Flair,( which belongs to a friend) and the batteries are being drained after about 36hrs while parked and unplugged with the batteries at full charge. Shore power will charge the batteries, but it takes about 3 days to reach full charge. I've had her replace the batteries because the old one's were bad and I figured that might be the problem. It wasn't. According to the battery monitor inside, one battery is full and the other is not. These are 6v batteries wired in series. So now I'm looking for some good advice as to where to start.
Some background on me, since I'm the helping her with this issue. I'm a motorcycle technician that graduated from Motorcycle Mechanics Institute, so I am mechanically incline and had a decent understanding of electricity, however not on an RV. So I feel a little out of my realm here. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Tony
