My 110 outlets are not working with my solar. Everything else works fine; lights, refrigerator, water pump, etc, but no 110 outlets. The outlets work while plugged into shore power or with the generator. This started when I was boondocking and did not notice my refrigerator was still set on DC, from traveling. When I went to make coffee in the morning, the electricity started struggling and eventually went out. I've checked all the possible fuses, breakers and GFCI plug, and all seem to be good. Is there a fuse for the inverter that is located somewhere else in the trailer, or could I have maybe fried the transfer switch? Thoughts?

My trailer is an 2018 Elite II.

Your outlets will only work with shore power, a generator, or with an inverter turned on if you have one. More information is required. What batteries do you have

If your batteries are too low of voltage < 10.5v the 2000 watt inverter shuts down.  the inverter should alarm on low voltage or give an E01 code.

when you are in solar if the batteries drop too low the inverter will not turn on again until the batteries are charged  

When we boondock we leave the inverter off unless we need 110 as it draws down the batteries just being turned on.

 

if you fully charge your batteries the inverter should begin working.

The batteries are back to fully charged. They went to down to around 50%, when this happened, but back to 100% now.

I recommend you leave your inverter off until you need to use 110, especially with AGM’s.  As mentioned above, just having your inverter on and not being used draws down battery capacity.  We rarely turn our inverter on.
