Greetings,

I am so desperately seeking advice. I have contacted the RV
Manufacturer and they did not offer any help.

I recently purchased a 1997 Rockwood Tent Trailer. It has a Magnetek
6612 Series Converter with Option O.

I have spent many hours trying to diagnose an electrical problem, but I
am not really patient with this kind of stuff. Do you happen to know
if in fact, the 6612 Series Magnetek Converter with Option O has the
ability to charge the battery (RV Battery) through the Converter whilst
plugged into 110V shoreline.

Using a meter, check the battery voltage across its terminals with the shore
power disconnected. It should be 12 something volts. Now plug in shore
power. (make sure the battery disconnect switch is not made) If there is a
charger, the battery voltage across its terminals should be the charging
voltage, 13 something. If the battery voltage does not go up as soon as you
plug in shore power, then no charger.

Regards,
Barry
