Hi all-

It's been a hot minute. Hope you're all well.
Haven't had much time to spend with the coach, but it's a marathon not a sprint, right?

I'm getting the urge to tinker again, and with good reason.

My coach had some " creative wiring" when I got it. When I plug her in, it charges the battery system, and things run off of that. I just realized that if the battery system doesn't charge, I got nothing. The reason I know this is because I think my charger is on the fritz, and none of they lights or house systems work without it. I know I need to rebuild the charging/inverter system, and need some guidance.

Does this beast have a system by which it runs straight off of shore power?

I need a gentle reminder of how these systems work.

Thanks in advance for your infinite patience with my dumb questions.

EDIT-

So in looking at the wiring schematic, if plugged into shore power, the only things that work are the outlets and a/c units.

Everything else runs on 12 v?
