I did not realize that we National RV owners now have our own forum. That is great! I have a problem that I have had since I bought new. My house batteries ((4) 6 volt trojans T- 05's) don't charge while driving down the road. I was told to check the interconnect solenoid on the board to make sure it works, but I don't know what it looks like on the circuit board. Any ideas? We love our Dolphin LX!

Anyone have a picture for VoW, it could save a thousand words 
By the looks of your coach upgrades, it seems to me you were at last years National Rally ?
Well done rig VoW

VOW
This panel is located in compartment forward of the entry door.
The 1 amp fuse in the middle of this photo seems to be for the relay just to its left. I believe this small relay controls power going to the solenoid that is mounted behind this circuit board and shown in photo below.
This is the solenoid that connects chassia and coach batteries together.
Thats a little less then a 1000 words.

you guys are the best!!!! I was told that if it is the relay that is bad, then the board must be replaced. But since it has never worked from day 1 it might just be that the 1 amp fuse is bad or missing or maybe the solenoid itself is not working. Thanks for the help!

Jestme, When I first bought the coach in 2003 I had all the suspension upgrades done, these updates were done at a workhorse shop in Elgin, IL (Champion Frame). I then met up with Mike from Brazel's at a trek rally in Kansas City where he UP'd the ECM and sent me a CAI kit with wires and I installed with new plugs. My coach is great to drive and now Champion Frame works with Brazel's and they just recently updated the UP program. Jestme, I know you used to have a Trek, were you there at the rally?

Not at the Trek rally, but we were at the national Safari rally . I got some great Amsoil upgrades you might like, I never got the installed on the Trek before I sailed it. I was taking all my extra stuff to the IRV2 rally in Branson, for the flea market. If ya see Mike again, tell him I said howdey, and go Eagles.
