Thanks to all who responded to my plight especially Fred Sage and Fred Kovol.
I put an external charger on the chassis battery and brought it up to 12.5 volts. The coach started right up.
I think the problem was that snow blew into the battery compartment and covered the house batteries with over an inch. After I cleared it off and reset the Xantrex panel, all the lights went back to where they should be. I know I haven't solved the echo charger yet but there is some thought that perhaps the extremely cold weather we're having is having some effect on it. I really don't care because if need be, I'll charge the battery again. We we get to the (hopefully) sunny south, I'll have someone take a look at it.
Meanwhile, I'm told that some of you have removed the echo charger and replaced it with abetter mouse trap. Does anyone know anything about that?
My sincere thanks once again. A post I made around midnight had three responses by 5:30AM. You guys are great.
We'll be at Jolly Roger in Marathon by February 18th, stop by and share a cold one with us.

George
