Given that it is over 2 years old, check Amazon for a WFCO 8955MBA. Amazon has about the least expensive price.

It is not too hard to change out. Just be sure that the shore power is disconnected and the battery is disconnected. When you do replace it, be sure you get the battery polarity correct or it will blow the two 40A reverse polarity protection fuses in the center. Also, do be sure to download and follow the troubleshooting chart. You may find that the problem is not the converter. Why spend money if you don't have to.

Think you got a handle on it. The battery needs a converter, the converter doesn't need a battery. Works best in tandem.
