Convertor is not keeping up with usage. Check to see if it is even working.

You are going to have to do some testing. Disconnect from shore power and disconnect your battery leads then check to see if any fuses are blown. Just don't look at them, pull them out at check with a meter. Make sure the breaker for your converter is not tripped, again, don't just look at it, physically check it by turning it off and restting it. If none are bad then connect to shore power and leave battery leads disconnected check the voltage between the leads. It should be at least 13 volts or a little more if not your converter is not charging the battery. Be sure that the positive lead does not touch any metal on the frame our you will blow fuses.
