The Aux start relay contacts get pitted over time a cause a high resistance and not a good current path between the batteries. There was a thread about this not to long ago I will see if I can find it.

Thanks, I've been looking at that and the 06' to see where it is installed. I did find a thread on the solenoid, but it was a bit confusing with all the different part numbers being looked at, plus they were talking about a gas model with a smaller solenoid - at least according to another poster.
I've found the part for $89 at Lichstin RV - my warranty has a $100 deductible so it's probably not worth the hassle to take it to a shop. I still want to be certain that's the problem before I get a new one and that the one I found 008188-02-00 is the best one for the bucks. That thread talked a lot about silver vs copper contacts.
It makes sense to me that this solenoid is bad, not just because of the voltage mismatch, but others having this same solenoid go bad and the fact that the emergency start would not work. it did not even light up the dash and those three house batteries were fully charged.
