First check that the battery disconnect switch is not in the disconnect mode. Since you had dim lights, it is probably in the right position.
With the battery in the coach and the shorepower plugged in, use your volt meter at the battery terminals to see if you are getting @13.5 to 14.2 volts of incoming power.
If so the the battery charger is working but the battery is not taking the charge.
If the voltage is not at least 12.5 DCv then the battery charger is not working.
Do you have an inverter in the Rig? Does it have a battery charger included in it? If so, there may be breakers on the Inverter box that have tripped and prevent the battery charger from functioning.
Many rigs have inline fuses between the house batteries and the Inverter/battery charger. Perhaps a fuse in the battery or inverter area common wire has failed? Check the positive cable from battery to inverter for an inline mounted fuse.
