How to Fix Magnum ME2012 Inverter 50 Amp Fault Code and Breaker Tripping Safely

Replaced the DC connections on my Monaco Cayman's Magnum ME2012 inverter per the manual, but I'm still getting 50 amp fault codes and breaker trips. The remote console is consistently showing a 50 amp reading, which I know isn't normal operation. When I watch the unit go through its self-test sequence, it connects initially but then flashes several times before failing completely. The fault light starts flashing on and off intermittently, and eventually the shore power breaker trips entirely.

What's really concerning is that my batteries aren't charging at all during this process. I've read through the manual and it mentions that the inverter might need a reset to clear fault conditions, but I'm not sure if that's the right approach here or if there's something more serious going on. The combination of the 50A fault display, failed self-test, and the shore power breaker tripping makes me think this could be a significant electrical problem.

What steps should I take to diagnose whether this is a simple reset issue or if my ME2012 inverter has a more serious internal problem that needs professional attention? …more

Monaco Cayman Complete Electrical Power Loss Fix

Already flipped every switch and tried starting my 2005 Monaco Cayman after complete electrical power loss yesterday and absolutely nothing responds. Just getting back into camping season after winter storage, and while merging onto the interstate last week, my entire RV just died - engine shut off, all electrical went dark, no warning lights or alarms beforehand. Managed to coast to the shoulder safely, and after sitting about 5 minutes, everything mysteriously came back online and I could start up normally. It's like someone flipped both my house and chassis battery disconnect switches simultaneously. This exact same thing happened about two years back. My local shop couldn't reproduce the problem or find any stored codes. I'm thinking it's some kind of relay or solenoid that's overheating, but I need help tracking down which one. Anyone experienced this total power failure before? …more
