Am I headed for disaster while boondocking somewhere?
Anyone's help would be much appreciated!

Random clicking COULD be as simple as a loose wire that interrupts the power going to the solenoid's coil.
I'd check all connections to make sure they are secure. Random "events" are difficult to diagnose because they never seem to happen while you are looking for them so the best one can do is to check connections and for any visible faults like damaged wires.
Regular checking of the house battery state of charge and charging voltage during your trip could avoid any disaster and the control center does fail, it's possible to bypass it while driving to make sure the batteries charge. Just be sure to "un-bypass" when engine is off to prevent unwanted discharge.
