coach battery
I just got a 1995 B190 and installed 2 new batteries. The coach battery is not powering the interior lights or anything else. Where do I need to start looking first? The tank monitor panels are not working either. Can anyone give me some help?

First thing to do is check the electrical section of this forum.

Re: coach battery
I'm going to move this to the electrical section, in fact.
But, yeah, check voltage at the 12 volt panel (coach panel -it's behind a brown metal cover)...it'll probably be zero, unfortunately. This is unfortunate because it means the break is between the battery and the coach panel, which is going to be harder to find. If it isn't zero, from there, start tracing to see where it becomes zero.

Re: coach battery
I think my converter may be bad. I'm going to have it checked. Thanks for the help.

Hey Guys,
I found the problem with my 12 volt system. It was the circuit breaker mounted on the fire wall by the battery. It cost me $8.49 to change out the breaker and everything works now. I am so happy. All I have left to do is to get my generator running. The camper set up for a couple of years and I think the carburetor is probably gummed up. That's my next project. I am really liking this little camper.

Re: coach battery
Glad you found out the problem and it was not an expensive fix.
I share your feeling about the B190's. They are really well made and compact. They have everything we need.
