Battery disconnect relay cycles on/off

The battery disconnect relay on my 02 Damon Escaper occasionally cycles on/off about every 15 seconds. Has anyone had this problem? My Intellitec BD1 display only shows a charge of 10.1. It cycles both with shore power and without.

Sounds like intermittent power to the +12v terminal on the relay.

Is 10.1 the voltage? If so, the batteries are dead for all practical purposes. Probably the charging system isn't working.

Check your GFI's because many converters are wired into that type of 120Vac circuit. And, check that your converter is getting 120V.

Is your converter fan cycling?

On my Thor, Four Winds, 06 Hurricane, the interior lights would dim and bright about every 10 seconds. When they brightened, I could here the fan on the converter come on. Then when the lights dimmed, the fan would go off. Changed my converter. Fixed the problem.
