It stopped all 12 volt service to the other three 15 Amp fuses. The female end of the fuse connector was just open enough that vibration from travel would sometimes cause the fuse to not make contact even though it looked and felt firmly seated. The problem was in the 20 amp fuse protecting the battery. I ended up giving thefemale connector a gentle squeeze with a pair of needle nose pliers and itsworked fine since.Good LuckAl'Jay Brummett' wrote in Brummett26.06.02 04:05.Īl Lander wrote: I'm not familiar with the Magnetek however I've had an issue with a Centurion converter in my 2000 Coleman Utah.
If the Magnetek has thesame setup you may want to check it by wiggling it side to side or slightlybending the tabs on the fuse in opposite directions.

I doubt it's the switch on the inverter.Just don't know where else to look, It is either a badcircuit in the converteror the relay which aut switches between shore power /battery power is bad.Thanks again for your input.Best Regards,Jay BrummettSalt Lake City, UtahAl Lander24.06.02 18:52. Also make sure you dont have a poped 12v circut breaker that feeds from the battery to the inverter somewhere - those suckers can be hidden - I have a 88 coleman plantation & mine 12v dc breaker is under the shower in a cabnet.Checked these also, they're good. Doesnt hurt to check the roof up/down safety switch as that will cause a no 12v from the battery. Have 12VDC from the battery at theconverter, just no joyon the downline side of the converter. The battery and wiring is normallywhere to look for thesekinds of problems. Also make sure the battery is charged ( and also properly hooked up polatity-wise).Yup, did that first. Check the battery 1st & it's wires & the wires from the battery going to the converter.

I have yet toremovethe unit and open the beast up - tomorrow night's project:(Does anyone have any info on these beasts (maybe even aschematic).Is it worth the effort to try and repair this unit forexample,is the cut-over just a simple relay? Any help, advice,pointers,shared misery, etc. I have bypassed the inverter and appliedpowerto the trailer's DC circuits and all functions normally.Sincethis unit auto switches between Converter and 'battery'mode, Iassume the problem is the cut-over circuit. However, when ACisremoved the unit fails to pass the battery 12VDC through tothetrailer circuits.
My unit is the original that came newwith the trailer. I have a '96 Coleman Keywest, which has a Magnetek 6620 OCpower converter.
