Power issue

Just joined after reading up on some great suggestions on motorhome issues.
I have a 2008 holiday rambler and just recently i have an issue with a couple of things.
1. My energy management panel wont display the Shore power amperage and also wont display the amperage that is being drawn.
2. I am having a clicking sound from the main breaker panel from the front ac Breaker and the washer dryer brakers wen they are on.
3. I have 4 receptacles that i am only reading arround 65volts.

I have only owned the rv for 2years i am some what comfortable with electrical but this has boggled my mind it just started happening your help much appreciated.

1. No idea..

2. If it just started happening, check and tighted all connections in the breaker box.

3. The 65v on the receptacles could be a neutral ground short. Either a loose connection in a receptacle, insulation chaffed off a neutral wire somewhere, or a recently added screw or nail penetrated into the wire. Assuming they are on the same circuit and starting with the receptacle closest to the breaker panel, disconnect the wires and measure voltage. Keep working from one outlet to the next to isolate the issue. If on multiple circuits see number 2.

What EMS system do you have? Do you have a multiplex system?

If you do, I would start by disconnecting power to the EMS, including 12 volts, and re-start it.

Thank you all For your suggestions, i have done some further trouble shooting and found that a hot wire loosened off in the transfer switch and also fried it, ordered a new switch and hopefully i can install and should resolve all the issues i was having.
