Preparing my pop-up for sale ... a '98 Coachmen 1260. She's been a good old bird but we're moving "up" to a TT. Discovered today that the converter keeps blowing its fuse. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

What is the brand name of the converter? The reason I ask is that on the T&TTT Teardrop & Tiny Travel Trailer forum we had some one who had an American (made in China) that blew capacitors and in researching it for him I found numerations instance of failure of these in other applications.
Have you tried it isolated from any load?

Will try what you suggest. ... but with all the fireworks coming from inside this thing, I think it may be fried. I'll check on the brand, as well and report back. Thanks for the thoughts. Appreciate it.

I have a Progressive Dynamic converter in our teardrop, made in the US and a company that stands behind their products. They have replacement converters for other brands.
