I then shut the engine off and started the generator, I see that the coach batteries are charging but not the engine battery. The tech said it is probably the solenoid. I do also notice that the Aux start switch does not work. Is this something I should take to the dealer for? When I opened the battery box I checked the fuse for the aux start. Also I see the solenoid in the box but it looks like it is hard to get to to change it out.
The way it is now if I am traveling the refrigerator is going to run the batteries down.

Call REV and find out how your coach is wired. On my coach, on shore power, the coach batteries must be charged to at least 13.3 for the charge to pass through to charge the chassis batteries. When the engine is running, the opposite is true....the chassis batteries must reach 13.3 for the charge to go through to the coach batteries.

You know things are so complicated these days and me being 83 doesn't help. I never grew up in the computer age. And also the little help you get at the dealer on the walk through doesn't get you ready for all the new fan-dangeled items. Everything used to be so simple. You had a switch that said on or off. I want to thank everyone for putting up with me and my questions. I don't know what I would do without you. Love you all and God Bless.

Since the inverted converts 12 volts to 110 I would leave it off since you are plugged in. Also since you are only plugged into 20 amp Rv could be shunting down things.
