All batteries were discharged, why?
So here is something new to me with a new to us coach. All has been well until yesterday. The gear box in our fantastic fan must have gone bad so the motor was just running trying to close the vent and not tripping the switch to signal it being closed. The coach is parked and doesn't usually run the batteries down. I went in the coach and discovered that all the batts were dead. Now I know the fan works off of the house batteries but why did the chassis batt. drain all the way? Is my echo charger defective? Is my switch for the battery boost or relay bad? I have yet to troubleshoot everything but good thing we weren't dry camping or I would have been in trouble, engine and gen wouldn't start and jumping this thing from a totally dead battery was a real PITA. Any ideas?
