Xantrex 1800 Inverter E05 error

Have not used our RV for 6 months. Now on the road to FL. Stopped for the night and turned on the Xantrex Inverter to get some 120v power. Nothing is turned on, no loads.
After a few seconds I get E05 overload error.
Has anyone experienced this? Solved it?
It would lead me to believe there is a short on the output of inverter. The battery voltage reads fine then I just get the error signal.

Turn off the main circuit breakers, on my 2551 (2015 version) there are 2 "main" breakers.   One for shore power and the other for inverter outlets.   With them off, see what the inverter does.  If you still get an E5 error, I would suspect the inverter itself.   If no error, turn the breaker for the inverter outlets.   If you get the E5 error, something is overloading.  I'd unplug the stuff in the passenger side front cabinet (DVD and TV and surround sound) see what happens.  If all is well, turn on the other main breaker.

Personally, I would suspect the inverter itself.   I had a similar problem a month or so after I got my PC and when I took it in to Phoenix, Bob tested the inverter and it was bad and he replaced it.

Thanks, that is exactly what I did and got the same error. Didn't have a chance to explore any further, travel day.

I had a problem with mice chewing the wires at the inverter (mine is under the bed), and thought that solved it, then found they had also chewed the wire running from the inverter to the panel.  Believe me, I don't wish the same for you, but it might help,,,

No mouse chewing, I'm sure it is an internal short. I just going to buy a new one $320.

By the way after my old 2006 2551 got chewed up so it wouldn't even run I found the answer.

100% Peppermint Oil, soak cotton balls and put all over, under the hood and where there is wiring. I'm still parking in the same place next to a barn and never had another wire chewed up.

Thanks -- I'll try that as well as the 1000 other things!!! Currently, the electronic things throughout on the inside, and Irish Spring soap underneath...Next will be the peppermint oil!!!  Yes, I store the rigs at the farm I sold to the kids - they feed the cats, so plenty of mice around....

Got the new Xantrex converter shipped to me at Jekyll Island, waiting for me when I got here. Installed in about 2 hours, no problems, I'm just slow and careful.

Turned it on Success.

So the old one has an internal short.
It was cheaper to buy on-line then through Phoenix.

Thanks for the feedback!!!

Out of curiosity,  since you have been up close and personal with the inverter......did you see anything that could be considered an on/off  switch?  I merely ask as another member is having parasitic drain on his battery, perhaps by the the inverter in the "off" position.  Thanks,  Larry

Nothing on the Inverter. But there is 120v power in breaker and 120v power out breaker in the breaker box.
I'm sure if you leave off the inverter from the remote panel the 12v draw in very small with the Xantrex Inverter.
