Dead Battery and Fuse Breaker Panel
Hello all. This is my first post and I just joined the forum!
I recently purchased a 2017 Rockwood Pop Up trailer. This is our first RV so we are still learning things.
We have not taken it out yet due to the winter. I have had it plugged in to the home 120AC for charging for the last 3 months. Yesterday I went to lift the roof up with the PowerWinch and the winch was dead due to the battery being dead! Then I realized prior to driving it home from the dealership I shut off all 4 circuit breaker buttons (30amp main, 15 amp converter, fridge, and AC). So upon turning the 30amp main and 15 amp converter breaker switch on, the battery should now charge. This was my fault.
My question for the forum is while storing the RV at your home and having it plugged into the home 120AC, do I need to have the 30amp main breaker on WITH the 15 amp converter on or can I leave the 15 amp converter breaker on WITHOUT the 30 amp breaker on? Will the 15 amp converter work without the 30amp main on? Also when I have the RV plugged into the 120AC home and both 30amp main and 15amp converter on and its charging the battery I can hear a fan noise. Is this normal? Will the fan always run when the converter is charging the battery or will it turn off once the battery is charged?
Thanks everyone so much
