Blinking lights

Got home yesterday from a short trip. I plugged the coach into shore power when we got home. As we where walking around the coach the lights that where on inside the coach where flickering. The more we walked around the more the flickered. This happened while we where hooked to shore power and even when not. The strange thing is that while we where traveling down the road the interior lights did not flicker at all. Anyone have this happen? Where should I start looking for loose connections?

Stop walking around the coach! Sorry I couldn't help myself. Maybe a battery issue. Low voltage while not charging with the alternator could be an issue with the charger but I'm shooting in the dark. Good luck.

Flickering as in going on and off or just dimming?

Betting your batteries are low, and there's an auto reset breaker popping and resetting, trying to limit current flow to safe levels.
