    PROBLEM ISSUE: The Coach/house disconnect toggle switch.

    I have a 2012 Winnebago Journey 42e, MS2812 Magnum Inverter, 1200 amps of Lithium batteries, 1150 watts of solar with Victron MPPT charge controller and a B712 smart Victron Energy battery monitor.

    ·         Voltmeter reads batteries are charged to plus/minus 13.0 volts.  Solar and engine alternator   (while driving) are keeping batteries charged.

    ·         When motorhome engine is not running the Coach/house disconnect toggle switch is off when I push the switch to turn it on nothing happens (will not illuminate), and no electrical     power in the coach.

    ·         When I push the chassis disconnect switch, I hear a on/off switching noise in the rear of the coach but when I push the house disconnect switch I hear nothing.

    ·         When motorhome engine is started and running the coach/house disconnect switch comes on (illuminates without pushing switch) and everything electrical in coach works normal.  But after coach engine runs (driving down the road) for a while the switch will go off by itself then after about a minute (?) it like resets itself and comes back on again and everything electrical in coach works.  This happens continuously while driving.

    ·         When I plug into shore power (engine is off) only the 120-volt side of the house will work and the 12-volt side is dead.

    ·         Also, when I try starting the on-board generator, it will try to start then immediately shuts itself  off (with motorhome engine started/running or not running).  I checked generator braker, and everything seem ok.

    ·         I have checked all the fuses, and everything looks ok. 

    ·         Before all this happen all electrical items/system on coach worked as intended.  No problems.   

     Does anyone have any suggestions to what is happening and what I need to do to resolve this problem?

     

    Thanks for the help.
