Try , disconnect all the house batteries as they are and then see what powers up....I suspect it is an extra house somehow wired back thru the main switch.....how many chargers do you have ?
Does the manual mention this at all ?

Never mind I just realized you have taken all the batteries out :banghead:... maybe next spring just connect the xtra and see what powers up......... :beergood:
The above is strictly my opinion always based on years of doing...remember to support local business , it pays back.
