No power

I have a Rockwood Roo 183 hybrid trailer. Just sitting in the morning enjoying a cup of coffee and all the power went out. we are hooked up to 12 volt batteries with solar power back up.
It’s our fourth day camping.

the batteries are reading 12.8 on the voltmeter and the solar panel is also reading 12.8 and is in charging mode.

I have checked all the breakers and fuses - all are ok.

What am I missing

Thanks

Have a look under front of trailer near battery to see is you have a mini-breaker that could be tripped. Press small black button to re-set.

Sometimes there is a resetable breaker on the frame towards the front . Make sure all the grounds are good.

As Fonzie and Rick explained, see if you have a 12 volt DC circuit breaker that may have tripped. This link may help:

Thank you for your help. I couldn’t find the breakers on the front tongue but I did end up disconnecting both batteries. And found one was holding its charge and the other had fully discharged. So I have hooked up with a fully charged battery, disconnected the discharged battery and everything seems to be working just fine.
Thanks again
