This is really a general forum issue, more than a Winnebago unique problem. This kind of problem comes up regularly in general forums, such as IRV2.com.
Anyways I will try to summarize what I think you are having problems with, along with questions.
-- First, you have a 2000 watt modified sine wave (MSM) inverter with a 100amp charger.
-- Second, There are 2 different battery problems. The chassis battery (engine starting) and house batteries. Is that correct?
-- Chassis batteries, probably need to be kept charged by a trickle charger. I know my gas Winne chassis batteries will die in 3-4 weeks if not kept charged. Chassis batteries many if not most time are not kept charged by shore power.
-- House batteries-- What did you do to break the inverter/charger?? What makes you think it needs to be replaced.
– You wrote that the inverter will not charge the batteries, I am assuming your are referring to the house batteries. Did you take a volt meter and measure the charge voltage from the inverter? Or how did you determine the inverter is not charging the batteries?

when the generator runs now only the AC Microwave and fridge work. None of the other outlets are working with the generator running. I do have shore power when connected.

Did you plug into every outlet, or just some outlets? With 50amp service usually some outlets are on one leg of the 50amp service and the others are on the second 50amp leg. Did you check all the the circuit breakers on the AC power center. Also there should be 2 circuit breakers on the generator, one of them could be tripped.
