Yep, I was using the remote start. I went to check the one directly on the genny but no power there either.

Where that small terminal is on the starter relay is there power to that when start button is pushed?
Normally you would have power to one of the big terminals on relay until that little terminal is energized from start switch then it energizes the other big terminal on starter relay.

I don't want to tell you what to do here but.
If that is infact the gennie starter relay you should be able to jump across the to big terminals and it should start the gennie.
I just don't want you to mess something up especially this late at night.

What's weird is you have no 12v power from batteries.

I though about jumping it but I'm not sure if that will solve my no fridge and no furnace problem. I think they both require 12 volt power

Well with gennie running fridge should switch to 110 power ? But alas the circuit board I believe still runs on 12v.

There's a 12v fuse and fairly large somewhere that has blown .
Ill see if I can find a pic of what you might need to look for.

I will investigate tomorrow but I started the RV for heat and the 12 bolt power mysteriously came back. I know it wasn't dead batteries because I checked them. Huh.... O well, all is good right now!
Thank you guys!!!!

I will try to take a picture of it when I get home but I found a butt slice connecter that had a loose wire. Fixed it today and all is good with the 12 volt power.
Thanks again for all of your suggestions!
