Our power control board only lights up 50 amp even though it is only plugged into a 20 amp outlet. It used to be able to switch manually between 20, 30, 50 and gen. This is on a Winnebago Sightseer.

What make, model and year is your RV?
 
There are a couple possibilities, but I would start by resetting the Powerline EMS by removing all 12v power from it for 15-20 seconds. In most coaches, turning the Battery Disconnect off will do that, but in some you have to actually disconnect the 12v wire (or fuse) that powers the EMS.

Please tell us what year/make/model you have.
 
2017 Winnebago Sightseer. Took it camping and home now and plugged in, and guess what, it shows the 20 amp. I have no idea what is going on with it. Only problem we had was the water heater, didn't want to heat on electric, had to use the propane.
