Is your battery fully charged and in good condition?? If not your converter/charger could be pulling as much as 13amps. Try turning off the breaker marked CON/RECPT (or similar) and see what happens.
Switch hot water and fridge to gas.

(1. Do the Hardstarts go bad but still let the A/C work?) We are dealing with RVs here. Everything can go bad!

Do not run A/C with voltage as low as you say. Personally I would not run below 90v for any extended length of time.

Welcome to the forum and keep us informed of you progress, Hank
thanks for the fast reply Hankpage!

So we just picked up the trailer this past Thursday and we were just trying to go thru everything. I tried plugging in the trailer to my house power but the breaker kept popping, Everything else ran fine but once I tried the A/C or the microwave it would pop the breaker because of the load I suspect and the breaker was a 15amp circuit. I haven’t tried running an extension cord to the dryer to see if the 40amp breaker will hold the A\C.

So we haven’t tried it on shore power yet and the trailer doesn’t have any batteries, would not having batteries be the culprit?

Thanks again
