No 12v power

Yep. Probably both. Follow positive wire from battery. Might go through a battery disconnect switch. Then keep following the positive wire under the trailer and there is probably a circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker is tripped, there will be a little plastic pin sticking out the side. Push the pin back in to reset it.

Does the battery(ies) have sufficient charge?
Are you connected to shore power?

I may have found something

Battery has plenty power and charging system seems to be working. I did have it disconnected from shore power when trying to see if i got 12v. I've checked all the fuses.

I did find a little red key that goes into a "switch" associated with the batter on the baseboard and to the right of the refrigerator, that says something about battery, maybe that is the switch, I haven't had a chance to try that but I will.

figured it out

One of the small circuit breakers closest to battery was inoperable. Bypassed it and there's my 12V. I ordered a replacement breaker...and a spare. thanks for all the help on this.
