Battery not registering

Tried to move slide out nothing happened. Then I noticed the electric jack not working. Went and got new battery and slide started working when plugged it into house. Still won't work on only battery. Jack now works on battery though. Fuses are good. New battery is not registering on panel Inside ether. Where do I go from here ?

You're new battery may not be fully charged. Some of the 12vDC systems on today's campers require at least 12.3 volts before they will work. A good multi-meter is a valuable asset at times such as this. You could take the battery back to the seller and ask that they test the voltage and load amps.

There is a circuit breaker between the battery cut off switch and where the wires enter the unit. It can be a manual reset or an automatic reset. You didn't say what type of unit you have so location is a guess. On travel trailers it's on the A frame. It may be inside near the battery on a 5er.

Thank you it was manual reset. However one of the breakers button is broken off . Looks like when the mounting screw was installed they broke the button off.
