Electrical issue
Woke up this morning with no 12 volt power. Everything AC/120 volt powered seems to working. All the breakers and fuses look good. Any idea where to start looking for a problem? Fridge and water pump will not function.
Thank you

Could you have a battery issue? Or dead Batts?

I am not sure. We have been parked at a state park with shore power. The batteries were showing a good charged state last night, but woke up this morning with out our fridge working. Have LP, but appears no 12volt power.
Thank you

I'm willing to bet you accidentally bumped the battery disconnect in your storage compartment.

It might be worth picking up a cheap multimeter, from a hardware store or car parts store, just to start the troubleshooting. Have you looked at your battery connections? Loose, corroded, or maybe even a broken wire at the battery connections are possible. I highly doubt a battery would just fail open while you were sleeping. Do you have jumper cables with you? Hooking the trailer battery to your tow vehicles battery would tell you if you were dealing with a dead battery or not.

Thanks for that idea, but already checked that. Got up this morning and our motion sensor light came on, but as soon as I tried to flush the stool the light went out. Came out to the fridge beep and now can not get it to respond.
Thank you

Maybe you have a dead converter. How did you verify you have a good state of charge? What type of battery do you have? A mulit-meter will be very helpful to troubleshoot.

The camper is a GD 303RLS. It is brand new and we have only camped in it twice. The battery connections look good and are tight. I do have jumper cables and have not tried that. Is that better that plugging the camper into the tow vehicle?
Thank you

I was able to just look at the control panel to verify fresh water, holding tank and battery levels.
Thank you

It is how I would do it. But whatever is easiest for you. I don't have the factory converter anymore but if I remember right there is a fuse directly on it. It wasn't fun to get to though.
