Tank/battery/lp gas monitoring panel

I seemed to have lost power/blew a fuse to my monitoring panel, I get no readings when I push the test button, checked fuse marked monitoring panel in the back and it reads good. I'm at a loss where to look next, 2000 monaco diplomat, T.Y.I.A.

I had that problem this spring. with help from this forum, I chased it down to the salesman switch solenoid. i'm assuming you already flipped the switch by your entry door. once it was narrowed down to the solenoid, I called the manufacturer of it and talked to a tech guy. very helpful. he told me that since I full timed, I shouldn't need to replace the solenoid, I could bypass it. haven't had a problem with the panel since

You checked the fuse with an Ohm meter or a continuity checker? If yes then do you have voltage on both ends of the fuse when the fuse is in the fuse panel?

Hi ! Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

I thought that every motorhome had a "salesman's switch" but not positive. Noticed that you are kinda new here and wanted to say hello.

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

You can download a copy of your owners manual here:
https://www.monacocoach.com/rv-owners-manuals

The digital version is great for doing quick searchs, like the battery disconnect switch.
Page 6-2 says your inside battery disconnect switch (nick named salesman switch) is located on the passenger console by the entry door. It is easy to inadvertently trip this switch.
You have two additional main battery disconnect switches in the outside curbside battery compartment.
Hope this helps!

Just want to thank everyone for all your help, I found the circuit board in the monitoring panel came unplugged, plugged it back in everything works as it should
