Post by: Bobby Kirk on February 14, 2015, 03:42:28 PM

I have a 2006 Beaver Marquis. Battery charger not working, only  solar will charge batteries. I have power going to inverter.
The big boy solenoid is elec box in motor comp. is not humming like it normally does. Does anyone know of a tech in the Okeechobee, Florida. area. Thanks for the help.

Bobby,
Once the chassis batteries reach a preset voltage (13.3 V?) the Big Boy relay closes to tie the house and chassis batteries so they charge equally.  See http://beaveramb.org/forum/index.php/topic,3875.msg29908.html#msg29908
So sounds like your chassis batteries are not charged, thus the Big Boy not engaging. Can't advise on a service shop though. Hopeful one of the members will be able to steer you to a good shop.
