Question Location of Converter

Hi, I have a 2012 Dutchmen Komfort model 2920frk fifth wheel.
I am trying to locate where the converter is in my rv and having no luck. The service department of dutchmen is closed today so they are no help. Would appreciate any assistance you can give me.

Don't know specifically where yours would be, but isn't it most common to be very near the breaker panel? At least close to the 12V fuse box?

I know it was easy to find ono my RV as it is deployed inches below the breaker main breaker panel.

Good luck

Usually close to the power panel. Turn 12 electrical things on then listen for the fan to run up. the more 12v power you use, the faster and louder the fan will run. Usually those lights over the kitchen table will heat the room very well. Make sure they are on also.

IIRC it is in the panel under the fridge, behind the breakers. Find your breaker panel and you should have the converter too.

Converter location for 2008 model

We are having the same problem and cannot locate the converter seemingly anywhere! And the temperature is dropping rapidly! Any input or help would be most appreciated!

Not sure what finding the converter has to do with cold temps? Plug in shore power (120v) and run some electric heaters if it's an emergency.

I know this post is years old but I never saw where it was ever found. I found it in the panel next to the fuse panel. I tried to get at it threw belly but found it easier to cut the panel wood it was behind.
