    Thermostat and lights

    New to this and started living as a full time rv'er. We currently own a 2020 GD imagine 2800bh and recently while using the heat the issue only occurs at night while nothing else is on but heat, the issue is that once the ignitor turns off in the furnace there is a click and all ceiling interior lights as well as bed lights in bedroom flick on momentarily, I originally thought converter going out but tracked the click to inside thermostat, should I just replace thermostat? As we live in our trailer we cannot take to the dealer let them sit on it for weeks only to say they cannot find an issue, any ideas?

    Nothing in the thermostat could directly cause that.

    The first thing I would look at is battery connections, then where the battery connects to the converter and where the ground connects to the frame.

    Where is the converter actually located behind the power distribution center?

    It should be. On my 2019 2800bh it is mounted to the floor behind and to the right of the fuse panel. I also removed the round heater vent to the right of the fuse panel for easier access when I replaced my converter.

    What kind of converter did you end up replacing original with?

    I installed a Progressive Dynamics PD9160ALV because I also installed a Lyon Energy Lithium battery.
