DEAD STARTER BATTERY 96 NEWMAR DUTCHSTAR DEB MENTINK 5-5-04  
JUST IN THE PAST FEW MONTHS-EVERYTIME WE GO TO START OUR COACH THE BATTERY IS STONE DEAD-SO WE RAN OUT AND PURCHASED A NEW ONE. WENT FROM ILLINOIS TO FLORIDA KEYS-NO PROBLEMS-(DID NOT USE THE GENERATOR AT ALL-B/C IT WONT START EITHER) ANY WAY-OUR RIG SAT FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS AFTER OUR FLORIDA TRIP, WENT TO GO CAMPING-AND THE NEW BATTERY IS TOTALLY DEAD-JUMPED IT, WENT CAMPING, WERE PLUGGED INTO 30 AMP FOR 3 DAYS, CAME BACK-PUT THE RV IN STORAGE-AND PRIOR TO LEAVING OUT OF CURIOSITY WE TRIED TO START THE RV-IT WAS TOTALLY DEAD. wE ARE SO CONFUSED-COULD WE HAVE A SHORT-WHAT THE HECK IS DRAINING OUR BATTERY. (WE HAVE TAKEN OUT THE TWO BATTERIES BY THE GENERATOR-AS THEY APPEAR TO BE COMPETELY DEAD ALSO-JUST WAITING TO REPLACE THEM)

tHANKS FOR YOUR HELP-WE ARE DESPERATE-BUT AFRAID TO TAKE IN TO THE DEALER TILL WE HAVE SOME IDEA OF WHAT IS GOING ON.

I was told to be sure I had the battery disconnect in the off position when my rig was parked and in the on position when running.
