Turning off the battery switch may not control everything 12 volt.
Do you see other wires that run directly to the positive post?
This will typically be for the steps, or LP detector, or awning.
BEFORE ANYTHING....TAKE PHOTOS OF HOW YOUR WIRING EXISTS TODAY.
THIS IS ASSUMING EVERYTHING WORKS PROPERLY BEFORE STARTING WORK.
In order to disconnect the batteries properly, make sure you’re not plugged into any outlet, battery switch to the OFF position, and then carefully remove the negative cable connected to the chassis. Remove what cables are needed to properly fill the cells that need distilled water. When finished, connect the cables in the reverse order.
Hopefully you have a digital meter, and can record the system voltage every step mentioned above.
Finally, plug your RV cord in to power. Then, turn ON the battery switch, and you should see the voltages increase as the converter does it’s job.
