No battery power - battery charge is full
I have left the battery connected all winter with the camper plugged in. On first trip out, I disconnected shore power but realized i had no battery power and couldn't switch the fridge to gas. Interior lights were out and even the radio wouldn't work. I put the battery on a charger but it read "full charge" on the battery. Is there a switchover thing that I'm missing?
Any help is appreciated!

This ^^.

Thanks much - the obvious first place to look - but I didn't! Will do as soon as I get home from work. My issues rarely are easily remedied but its worth a try.

Just wanted to say 'Welcome to the forum'. You've already gotten the advice I would have given (check the disconnect), let us know if that doesn't do the trick.

OK... confession time. When we got ready to roll to the active runway and go wheels up as we launched full-time in our previous Reflection 337, the main landing gear were the only thing that worked after I disconnected shore power. I plugged the rig back in and we rolled by the dealer on our way out of town. 30 minutes later our favorite tech came in the building to tease me. I had hit the battery cut-off switch with a plastic tub loading the basement and hadn't noticed. Things like this happen to all of us.

We're camping at Council Bluff, MO this weekend and turned off the generator after cooking dinner and all the lights went out. I decided to continue with eating dinner since we were all hungry and ready to eat. During dinner I mentally went through all the scenarios on why the battery didn't work and whether we needed to pack up and go home after dinner. I then got out the multimeter and started testing the connections and it all seemed normal. To the internet and the mygrandrv.com site! Saw this post and checked the disconnect switch. It was just barely hanging on and I reconnected it. Whew! Thank you for this post and glad I had internet in the middle of nowhere.2021 Imagine XLS 23bhe
