Power problem

Everything works on battery but when plugged in only microwave works. No lights, radio or anything.

2014 Swift SLX 18.5 RB

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you check your circuit breakers? If stuff stops working when you move to 120 volt that was working on 12 volt dc, that's probably the first place to look. If things aren't getting power after that check, there's something up with your converter. You can replace them pretty easy / not expensive. Good luck... I'm sure others will have better advise.

Thanks. Breakers are on and working. Fuses are all good as well. Was thinking maybe converter.

Check the back of the converter for a bad fuse or tripped circuit breaker.

120VAC to 12VDC converter is not functioning.


The 120V battery isolation relay is active, then no DC to run the low volts stuff.


Pull the converter out and dig in with the DVM.
