Title: Converter Progressive Dynamics 699 Dave You Out There
Post by: LJ-TJ on August 30, 2020, 06:56 AM
Hey bud, just lost the 12 volt side of my progressive dynamics 699 converter. Any thoughts on were to start to track down the problem. On shore power Fridge works, Microwave works, TV works. Nothing 12 volts works. Thanks in advance. ??? :( Hm?

I do not have internal wiring diagrams for a PD699

Is the TRANS/OFF/BATTERY set to TRANS?
Is 12VDC available when you set the TRANS/OFF/BATTERY switch BATTERY?
Have you tried to reset the AC and DC push button circuit breakers?

PS: you may have to replace the converter: Upgrading TJ's 1975 D-21 Electrical System (https://www.classicwinnebagos.com/forum/index.php?topic=9224.0)

Hey Guys  :)ThmbUp Thanks a million for your responses. Yep! I'm thinking of a up grade. However after working on this thing since Thursday (suppose to have gone drag racing and camp out.) At 12:05 I found the problem. A bad ground. As you guys always say"Did you check for a good ground" D:oH! Plus after a little pull and push on wires and breakers it was a sticky breaker. Can't thank you's for your quick response. Wish more guys were fiddleing with the earlier rigs so I could kick in a bit. Thanks again.
