Thank You Forum members. I just picked up a new to me 2008 Windstorm 36R motorhome with only 8500 miles on it. While getting it home the house power went out and I did not know why. I was able to run the generator and keep 12v on while driving but when I went looking for what was wrong I could not find anything. the messages I read were close and some had part of the problem but not all of it almost. I have a RV Custom Battery control board in the front and what I found was the circuit breaker on the board had tripped and there was a small black button that I had to push to reset it. It all works great now and things are good again. The symptons were there was no 12v power when I was not plugged in or running the generator. I could start the generator with the battery and the batteries were being charged when the generator or the engine was running. When I unplugged the 12v Power went away and that meant no refrigerator and no lights inside and no light at the coach cisconnect switch. All great now thanks to all the messages I read. thanks again.

Its going to take some getting used to, but you will figure it out. These monster have quirks. Mine does the same thing. I don't know what triggers it.
