Our new batteries won't hold a charge for more than a few days, we think the problem might me with our converter. Can anyone tell us where it is located?

Thanks,
Jim & Marge
Jim,

Still haven't found it I see. I don't have your model, so not a lot help there. Normally they are around the AC / DC panel. On mine it is under the stairs going to the bedroom. Access is from basement or you can take off the gril on the risers.

On ours, the more load you put on it the more noise the fan makes.

AC Breaker should be labeled for converter, and check DC Fuses.

I recommend you disconnect the negative battery terminal and see if any of your DC lights work. That will tell you if the converter is putting out or not. On my model the convert has just one output which feed the DC panel where all the DC Fuses are. If the lights are on with the battery disconnected, the the convert is putting out, and you have a blown fuse between the converter and the battery.

Lastly Jim, where are you currently? There may be MOC member near by, that can help.
