A new alternator was installed while camping. The house battery is being charged but the motorhome truck battery is not. A new battery was installed but is doing same thing.

Hello Roy,
If the truck battery is not being charged then it must not be properly connected to the alternator. Start at the battery and check all connections. Clean the ground and ensure power can get from the alternator to the battery.
P.S. I am an A.S.E. Certified mechanic, just not with this site
