My husband and I own a 2008 Bighorn 3670RL. He is working overseas and I recently replaced the batteries. I don't know much about anything mechanical, so I asked a friend about hooking up the 2 12-volt batteries... either positive to positive or positive to negative. Well, apparently, he told me wrong. He had me hook them up in a series instead of parallel and I got a spark. a BIG one. Well... I figured out that was wrong, so I hooked them up the other way, parallel and now my slides work, but I don't have power to anything in the trailer with just the batteries. The lights work when plugged in, so I am assuming I did not mess up the converter, but is there a fuse or something between the batteries and the converter that I could have messed up? I checked the breakers and the fuse box, and all seems ok. I haven't located the converter, but from other posts, I am assuming it is in my basement, behind the wall. I just was wondering if someone could tell me possibly what I should look for. Thanks for any help. With the time difference between Texas and Guam, it is hard for my husband to talk me through stuff and I don't remember us ever needing to know where the converter was. Thanks for any help.
