Thought I'd ask here after looking online elsewhere for a while.
I have a motorhome with two battery banks. The house batteries and an engine starting battery.
The motorhome does not charge the house batteries while driving down the road, only charges the engine starting battery.
We're planning a trip shortly and I don't have time to figure why it's not charging the house batteries.
If I just jumper a heavy duty cable from the positive side of the engine battery to the positive side of the house batteries, will that cause a long term problem?
I tried it out temporarily and both banks charged, but am concerned about damaging either the batteries or the motorhome's engine charging system if I go a couple of weeks doing it...
