here's the facts about a 12volt battery. Even if your meter reads 12V doesn't mean it's a charged battery. 12.73v = 100% charged. 12.62v = 90%, 12.50v = 80%, 12.37v = 70%, 12.24v = 60%, 12.10v = 50% charged. even at (12.whatever) could be that the battery will not have enough charge for its cold cranking amps. All the years we put a meter on a battery and said it's good we got 12 volts....LOL. I would unplug the camper and all other things (Dash cam, go pro, whatever from dash) and isolate the truck to itself and get a reading after a shut off and then an overnight reading just before a start-up. Could be a bad battery. I'm told go with a Deka, they're not cheap, but I hear they're top notch. I'll be putting them in my 2018 3500HD Duramax when the stock ones go bad. Also I don't know if there is a way to email you. I have the same set up as you and would like to send pics to show you some mods I have added. I know you'd like them. Good luck and keep the videos coming.
Yup my email is listed on my page. Like I have said anything under 12v is dead. I make sure when parked for more than one day nothing is on and the only thing I do leave on if for one night is my dash cam. So not sure what’s going on. Last stop was for 6 days and started right up. 🤷♂️
At least I wasn't the only one who ran into the odd "odd" character years back although expect what you dealt with was more fringe than anything I happened across. Hopefully it is just a simple battery issue but imagine if you are in a spot for a few days and assuming the system doesn't go stupid just to disconnect the battery, to disconnect it after you shut down and then keep tabs on its voltage and if it maintains voltage through the few days and then hooking up to start and it works fine, that might indicate other issues are happening to cause random draws.
🎉JJ awesome video 🎉 thank you for sharing
You find the coolest places!! Enjoy bro!! ❤
