I just installed a progressive inteli-power 9260. and now my coach pops the GFI as soon as the concerter gets hooked into the 12 volt system of the coach.

any thoughts as a place to start?

currently I plugged it directly into an 20 amp non gfi outlet and seems to work fine.

I also plugged it in with a extension cord that I had that has the ground broke off, and it does not trip the GFI.

I am plugging from the 50 amp original cord into a 50 amp to 30 amp rv cord, then to an adapter that goes to the 110v 20 amp.

I ran into this with a friend's homemade camper as well. his just recently started to pop the gfi in his garage. and I can't seem to figure out where it is having the issue.

after checking his camper out, we just could not pinpoint the problem. and just now keep it plugged into the non-gfi outlet.
