I have a Rockwood 2280BH pop-up and have lately been having trouble with inside lights flickering or going out. Once I shift or push on the stove/sink, they come back on. I suspect the metal contactors are not being fully engaged/pushed in when the sink/stove combo is in place. Any suggestions...

Hi I'm looking for some help. I bought a 2011 puma palomino, 30 footer. I just got a group size 27 deep cycle battery for it and it doesn't power the microwave or the A/C. Will adding a second battery in series solve this problem? Both of these appliances work when I'm plugged in to AC power.
