There are other threads in the archives of folks with converter problems and those with suggested upgrades.

What are the symptoms of your problem? Have you checked all the fuses in your converter panel?

Well the symptoms started when we pluged into the camp site the lights would cycle on then off.
I went ahead and measured the voltage at the plug to rule out a voltage surge which that's what I thought it was but all was fine on that front...from there I checked the fuse at the battery it was blown. I replaced the fuse but that did not help anything.Then I checked all connections inside the camper...i.e. converter,switch at the bathroom which completes the circuit for the 12volt side. Then I noticed everytime I threw the breaker at the pannel it would cycle the 12 volt side on for about 2-3sec. After that I refered it to a dealer in kyle Texas which confirmed that the converter was bad on the 12volt side. Naturally they did not have in stock which makes me think it's a item that rarely goes out......but I may be wrong on that. That's why I posted the question.
