Thank you Michael,
I called Xantrex today and they said "It's obsolete,,,cant get parts,,,Call back with the serial number and we'll sell you a new Xantrex 458 series 81-3010-12 at 40% off. (My cost 951.00) It's not easy for me to admit that something cannot be repaired so I took my tools and went over to tear into it today. When I arrived I discovered that it is working perfectly!!! The only thing I can figure out is that I inadvertently reset it yesterday or it cooled down overnight. ( I may take Xantrex up on their offer anyway :-) )
I'm trying to understand how this works....There is a converter in the power cord compartment that has a cooling fan. I have assumed that charged the batteries. So does the inverter charge them as well or is it a totally seperate function?
