I have a solution for you to replace your converter, but you're not able to upgrade to a 90 amp converter like the Replacement Converter Section for Progressive Dynamics 4500 # PD4590CSV because your current electrical system likely isn't set up to handle 90 amps. Upgrading to a 90 amp converter would require changing out breakers and getting higher gauge wiring between the battery and power distribution box, among other things.

The best solution for you on this is using a 60 amp converter like the Replacement Converter Section for Progressive Dynamics 4500 Series # PD4560CSV, which is designed for 60 amp systems.
