Weird. Leg 1 volts gauge reads 0 and so does the Leg 1 AC/Amps gauge. Inverter?
Thanks for all the input guys. As it turned out, the RITV BB techs
determined that it was a burnt switch, and there were even some loose screws securing the wire, in the 50 AMP Relay Metal box. Another birder, first name of Royal, just happened to have a spare box with him and we got it replaced. Works fine now. Knock on wood. Although we don't know that it was a surge that triggered it, I'm going to pick up a surge protector at the first opportunity. Have heard some real horror stories at the rally about couda shouda and surge protection.
