Hey all! Just bought an RV! It was the best deal ever... and I drove it to get it serviced... drove it to work... then drove it home... and now it will not start and I have to leave today!

1997 Fleetwood Pace Arrow Vision
No power to the dash/ignition/head lights... but the coach power works just fine.
The generator started right up. I ran it for a couple hours. Still nothing.
Also tried holding the aux battery start button while turning the key. Still nothing.
Any ideas??? Hoping this is something easy... like a switch somewhere???
Aux battery meter shows 100 percent. Main battery meter has no reading.
 
There should be a battery Disconnect switch by the entry door.  Check to see if it is ON.  Press the TOP of the switch to get power.
 
You checked to make sure one or both of the cables on the battery hasn't come loose?
 
I'm replacing the wiring on the back side on the ignition switch, of my old van, right now.  Some vehicles run too much current thru the switch and cause a meltdown.  New connector with pigtail is available.  Just one thing to check.
 
Thought I should post the solution here, although its been over a year ago!
It was a bad battery. We replaced the battery and everything worked perfectly. I drove the 20 year old Pace Arrow RV from San Diego to Cleveland and back to San Diego. That thing is a beast.
