Most motorhomes will not allow the generator to drain the main tank below one quarter. If your gas tank is below a quarter, the genny will quit. Could also be low on oil.

Now you're saying it's not even turning over and not making any noise. That would be something else. Try being a little bit more specific please. Also, what's the make and model of the generator?

Many generators start by using the HOUSE batteries. Check the charging and condition of your house batteries as your description of the problem says to me that the house batteries are dead. Where are you trying to start it from, the genny itself or by an inside switch?
Make and model of both the generator and the RV itself might be helpful.
