    Converter location

    Hi,
    Our battery is not charging on shore power. Suspecting the converter. Does anyone know where the converter is located? Imagine 2970RL 2021.
    Thanks

    The converter is on the space under the hutch. Remove the louvers panel and you will see a deck mount converter mounted vertically on the wall between the kitchen and the bathroom.

    I believe in the Imagines the converter/charger is integrated in the power distribution panel. Be sure your battery disconnect switch is ON in the connected position (key can't be removed) if it is disconnected the batts will not charge.

    Thanks Jim, I assumed it was a reflection.

    Be sure to check the polarity fuses on the out-put side.

    Edit: I would imagine with no load (bad out-put fuse) the fan would not run very long. Just a thought!

    On the output side of the converter itself?

    Yes, should be two.

    Edit: Those two fuses have kicked a lot of butts!

    Did you do a resistance test on the fuse? Quite often they look good but are shorted. Pull out the fuse and check voltage at the fuse. Just redundancy, sounds like you have a dead converter
