Are the chassis batteries totally dead so that the engine not crank at all, or does it make some noise?
I think the battery disconnect only disconnects the house batteries, not the chassis batteries. If both sets of batteries are dead, then I'm wondering how old are all your batteries?
The chassis batteries only are connected to the ignition to start the engine and to the entry step. I suspect a few of the 12 volt outlets in the front area are also connected to the chassis batteries, too. Maybe others can chime in if I've overlooked anything connected to them.
Good luck, and let us know the outcome.
