Clicking Sound when I plug into shore power

Hi Folks,

I notice latey that when I plug in to shore power, I hear a click near my converter. I originally thought that it was perhaps because I had something plugged in but I check and there's nothing plugged in.

Does this sound mean that there is a problem (ie like my converter going out)

For those of you who know, tell me something. For those who have no clue, keep your fingers crossed for me.

Hi Horst,

Just one. My guess is that its the relay swith from battery to AC; however, I don't recall hearing it until now.

Big Ray,

You are hearing the change over relay in the converter. If you don't hear the click or hear a buzzing sound (like a hair clipper) your in trouble.

Well I feel better now. For the life of me, I don't recall hearing that clicking sound before. Oh well!
