    I have 2013 Freightliner and it does the same as your truck. Charging it show 15Volts and bunk heater causes beeping and shutting off at about 6 hours of use

    Have someone check the short cables that connect all batteries together 1 or more of those are probably bad.

    It's doing ok now. I quests it was the cooler, I unplug it at night and it don't beep at all. Just don't make no sense why you have to unplug it and let your drinks get hot. So much for milk I guess.

    Maybe the motor on the cooler is drawing more juice than it should. It should draw about 3 amps so overnight that would be about 24 amps. Your truck shouldn't even notice that.
