Main Power Dead

[Diesel Diva]

Main power is out. We are plugged into shore power but still have no main power. Circuit breakers are not tripped. Help - it's freaking hot in Florida and we need to lift the passenger side privacy screen before we leave for a service appt at 4:30 am.

You have a power cutoff switch by the front door that is easy to bump. Also there is another on the drivers left hand consoule. Make sure both of those are on

I have only seen 12V cut out switches in those locations I have never ever seen main power switches ?

Check the transfer switch in the basement where the power comes into the coach. Sometimes the spring loaded points that change shut to allow power into the coach will stick open unplug it give it a swift rap with your fist, plug it back in, if you do not hear the "clunk" that signals power flowing give it another rap and see if it will kick on. If not they can be flipped manually but if you do not feel very comfortable doing it you need professional help. IF that is the problem the long term fix is replacing the transfer switch. All JMHO

The one by the door kills everything including ac

Look at the inverter in the basement. If no lights are on it may need to be reset. There is a white reset button on the side. This worked for me. Hope you have your problem fixed already.

No it only kills 12V Dc no AC power OP says MAIN power went out?

Untill he comes on and explains what he calls MAIN power who knows whats up

Your calling main power the 12v source by the sounds of things?
I call the main power just what it is |Main power.The 100 amps that's comes into the MAIN POWER PANEL
based on what the OP posted

He says the AC wont work I do not believe the AC wires go through the inverter feeds?

When I kill the switch by the door all Ac driven (air cond,tv etc) go out. Not sure how else to interpret that. OP hope you are able to figure it out.

Ok so on your unit when you hit the 12v disconnect it also kills 100% of your AC power? Am I understanding you correctly? If so how does a 12V disconnect shut off all 120V power?I just can not understand how that works.or is possible?

[hogdriver]

I believe the main power cutoff switch (which is indeed 12v) kills all the coach battery bus power. That bus powers the thermostat control. Killing the thermostat control is what I think kills the AC units.

i know for a fact that on my 2011 Aspire if you hit the MAIN POWER switch inside entry door to the left clse to floor NOTHING at all works in the coach no matter is shore power or generator! NOTHING at all, completely dead ship!
Also if the inverter has tripped out ( mine has a 30amp labeled white reset button) nothing works on my coach either!!!! The reset on the inverter is not that easy to locate if mounted middle of the bay between frame rails like mine!
Hope it is something simple and your up and going soon!
