Low battery indicator on shore power

Camping for the second time in our new rig. Connected to 30 amp shore power. Thermostat in the bedroom is blinking “LO“ and the battery indicator in the bathroom also indicates our 12 V battery is low. Our lights are flickering inside. We are plugged into power and everything that operates only on shore power is working fine. Any ideas? Internet research reveals that the “LO“ indicator happens when the 12 V battery is low.

I would start at the battery and look for loose connection at the terminals and all of the 12v Buss Bars. Also check your fuse/breaker panel.

Found converter breaker was tripped. Unsure why.
You might check all of the electrical connections that you can access. Battery, Buss Bar, Pull Panel and check connections.

I found numerous loose 12 volt connections when we took delivery.

It wont take you much time, and the investment will pay dividends by eliminating electrical gremlins.
