    Mike … precisely what I do.

    If I don’t leave the lights on or something hooked to the chassis batteries, they will last six to eight weeks sitting and still start the coach.

    If your chassis batteries “run down” in a short period of time of not starting the coach, I think you have one of three problems:

    1. Your chassis batteries are old.

    2. One (or more) of your chassis batteries has a problem that will only get worse. Possibly leaving your stranded. BTDT!

    3. Someone (hopefully NOT your converter) has wired something directly to the batteries or an “always on/hot” power source that shouldn’t be.

    4. You (or someone else) inadvertently left “something on” that shouldn’t have been left on draining the chassis batteries.

    The Chassis batteries with both of the switches off, draw almost Zero load. They don’t need to be in charge state all the time. Usually a few days before a trip i push the charge switch and monitor the voltages. When in storage between trips it is not charging. I would never leave it plugged in all the time charging.

    I think it goes to electric compressor and also a manual air fill port? Mine had that converter tag in the rear above chassis batteries Next to were you fill tanks from. It’s kind of strange yours has 2 lines coming from that valve mine are open, Those 2 lines might be like I said compressor @ fill port for aux system

    It would of been installed by Outlaw in the DS front run box under your seat. It should be a female quick connect.

    If it’s not there you would have to hunt or they didn’t install one.

    Dr. Yetter,

    Had low pressure light flash on my 2007 Marathon H when in normal service. It was suggested that replacement of switch would solve problem. I did that and worked just fine.
