2005 30TS where is the converter located?

Just bought a '05 cardinal 30ts with no paperwork. Where is the power converter located on this model? Thanks for the help.

just so you know, FR only provides a generic owner's manual.
nothing is model or even type-specific.
so, even if you had the paperwork, there would still be nothing to tell you the converter's location.

generally, most FR RVs have the converter near or under the fridge.
should be a brown plastic cover to it. you'll find the fuses and breakers there and the converter is behind that stuff.

Different years and different models the converter will be in different locations. I know that did not help. Mine is located on the street side of the storage bin. towards the back of it. I also have the water pump there. You may want to try here for more info CARDINAL RV CLUB

Thanks for all the replies. I found it inside the basement storage on the right side. The converter was not putting out any DC voltage. Ordered a new one from a place in Tennessee for $ 125, model W F-9855. It is a 55 amp converter. Should be here in a couple of days. Thank you again.
