trouble with converter

 

?I am having trouble with my converter whereas I have a fully charged/new battery and when I try turning on a cabin light everything goes dead.
I have switched out every fuse I can find and before I try and test every wire inside the converter was wondering if there is an obvious solution I'm
missing. When I'm plugged in everything works like a charm!? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

That really sounds like a bad connection somewhere between the battery and the converter. That could even be right at the battery terminals.

Double check the fuse in the battery box. Even if the fuse itself is good, it's contacts could have oxidized over time because of the semi-outdoor conditions. I have had a similar issue last year when re-installing the battery, and that was the cause.
