New guy with a question

Hi all, I hate being the new guy and asking a question first thing, but I'm frustrated beyond belief with this issue. My girlfriend and I bought a 93 PlayMor fifth wheel for her to use while we are renovating her house. She sleeps in it a few nights every week. When we got it, we were told it needed a new converter, so we replaced and upgraded the converter with a Parallel Dynamics one. We also put a new battery in it. She runs off dc power when she stays there, and uses that sparingly. Eventually, the battery got a bit weak, so I took my generator over, plugged it in, and let it run for a few hours to recharge the battery. Next day, no power. So I brought the battery home, and hooked it to my battery charger here. Battery tests good, has good voltage. Put it back in the camper, and since the jack control is right by the battery compartment, I tried the jack. It went up and down as it should. Went inside, no power. The information panel would show full battery charge until I turned a light on, then it would dim out. Using a 12v test light, I am getting power from the battery, but when I tested at the converter, its not getting power there. Maybe I should mention that everything was working great until the battery started going down, and I recharged it. Ive tried everything I can think of, don't know if it has a transfer switch or a cut off switch, or anything like that. Don't know how it would have gotten moved if it does. If anyone can give me at help or guidance with this issue, I would really appreciate it. This did happen once before, and I replaced some wiring and a couple inline fuses from the battery and it fixed it up. This time, no clue. Thanks in advance for your help
