Inverter question....I think

Hi all,

We just returned from a trip and plugged the coach into our 50amp plug at home as always. AC etc all works. However, we soon realized none of our outlets were working. I looked at the panel for the inverter and the only light on was the "fault" light. If I turned the inverter on, the outlets work. I am unable to switch it to "CHG".

This coach and system are new to me. Any trouble shooting tips on what could be causing the "Fault" light to be on? It worked flawlessly over the last seven days while on our trip.

Possible relevant info - 2009 Monaco Camelot
We drove home 6 hours with no generator but didn't need to power anything so batteries should be fine. Batteries are less than a year old.




Thanks in advance!

Now that you have the manual, locate the network plug on the inverter. Disconnect, wait, say 15 sec, plug it back in. if that didn't work then go to the real magnum site and call or email tech support.

What happens when you start the generator? Does anything change?

Check the breaker on your actual inverter.

Look closely on the side of the Inverter for a small breaker. Not the two white ones that control 110 volts. You may need to turn your batteries off and disconnect shoreline to get it to reset.,

Thanks for the links guys. The soft reset outlined in the manual did the trick.
