Thanks Dick.

I looked up the website and got the Owners manual (which didn't come with the camper). I worked in industrial electronics eons ago so once I get a schematic things make a lot more sense. I'll be getting the test gear and of course it will be available for anyone in the park.

One thing I did notice in the manual is Atwood makes a 110volt model! That sounds a lot better than putting strain on the batteries to me particularly since we will never boondock and I can't imagine that the batteries would last very long running the furnace fan anyway. So to me it doesn't make much sense for the unit to be 12volt to start with.....
