Fuse panel green light - Blinking versus solid?
So, in the picture below, you'll see a green light bulb on the right-hand side.  Sometimes it blinks once every 15 seconds or so, but I've also seen it stay solid.  What does blinking versus solid mean?

Looks like your rig is outfitted with a Progressive Dynamics converter. I updated the ancient converter in my 2003 TK to a PD converter and the manual details the modes that are indicated by the blinking LED:


BOOST MODE – Indicated by green LED remaining on. The output voltage is 14.4VDC to rapidly recharge the
battery up to 90% of full charge.

NORMAL MODE – When the battery is between 50% and 90% charged, the green LED will flash once per
second. When the battery has reached 90% of full charge the green LED will flash 2 - 3 times per second. In this
mode the output voltage is 13.6VDC and the converter is safely completing the charge of the battery.

STORAGE MODE – Indicated by green LED flashing every 6 - 8 seconds. In this mode the output voltage has
been lowered to 13.2VDC, the RV battery is fully charged and the converter is maintaining the charge.

Perfect...Thank you very much!
