I'm going to go out and do a cold start tomorrow morning to see what it does.
Today it was faulting when the load was picked up and the ammeter started showing around 4a. It always runs for about a minute before it loads up.
What it has done in the past is after a period of time sometimes up to an hour it would fault, then continue to fault in a serial fashion, usually while driving to get the A/Cs running, or run the microwave at a rest stop etc. Our microwave will run on the inverter but it is painfully slow, taking 2-3 time as long to heat something. I hate intermittents, they take forever to find and if you need to take it in hours of repair time at big bucks per hour!!
