Hello, Campers!
I am new both to RVing and my motorhome. It is a 2003 Winnebago Windsurfer (wind ... something) with the 8.1L Chevy engine. I may have been taken a bit by the private seller, having to replace all 6 tires (it is a 30 footer) because they were literally coming apart after the 15 mile drive home. When plugged in, all the 120 volt equipment works, on battery nothing. It starts and runs fine, but the interior house lights are weak or nonexistent and the TV doesn't come on either. They worked at the sellers place, honestly I don't remember if it was plugged in or not. We went to a dumping place at the local water treatment plant and the pump seemed to work fine. I left it plugged in for 8 - 10 hours (that should charge the house batteries, shouldn't it?) but still nothing.
Could dead, as in need replacing house batteries, exhibit these symptoms? Is there some switch that I've Forgotten about?
