Also have AC unit works fine plugged in. Totally confused how I can have no power at the fuses but some appliances work anyway. Totally confused trying to get my furnace to work when it works before I shorted out house battery wires with sure power connected to inverter. There could be a couple areas that could have the issue. It is possible the fuse panel was damaged itself. When checking the fuse panel, connect the negative lead to the negative wire coming from the battery.
Then use the positive to check the terminals on the fuse holders, on each side when a fuse is plugged in. If there is no voltage to the furnace fuse terminal then the fuse panel itself has an internal failure and would need replaced.
If there is voltage there but not at the furnace you would want to inspect the furnace. If the AC and furnace run off of the same thermostat, that is a good thing. The furnace gets the 12v power from the thermostat. You would want to check the furnace itself next. This switch will also trip if there is a short or high amp draw going to the furnace.
If this switch is OK, check the voltage at the furnace board. There could be a problem with the board itself. Tracing the voltage loss one component at a time is the best thing to do. You said there was no voltage at the fuse itself so I would double check and make sure that is accurate before proceeding to anything else. Again, if there is not output voltage to the fuse and everything else is still working the fuse panel could still be bad.
You could temporarily move the wire connection from the furnace at the fuse panel and switch it to another fuse and see if it turns on. This will tell you for sure that the fuse panel has a faulty terminal spot. Converter problems.

We get home bathroom plug and plug to main TV have no power. All other plugs are hot. Any suggestions? If the other outlets on the GFCI circuit are fine, there is most likely a problem with the connection on that outlet or the one that it feeds off of. There are usually only a few circuits for the outlets so a lot of times they feed off of each other. If there is a bad output connection on one outlet it will cause the other ones to not work properly.
The same will go for the TV outlet. Before taking apart the outlets I would check the breakers and make sure nothing is tripped. You also want to check all of the connections there as well, the hot, neutral and ground wires.
Most likely it is the outlet it is feeding off of though. Really removing and inspecting the outlet connections is the best thing to do. Is there a reset?

We are in Bellingham Washington. Hi Brenda. It sounds like there is an issue with the inline safety device. There is usually a fuse or breaker inline from the battery to the fuse panel.
Since everything works when using generator power the converter and fuse panel are fine so the issue is directly with the battery. The monitoring panels can sometimes be connected directly to the battery which would mean it could be saying the battery voltage is good but it may not be sending it back to the fuse panel because of a blown fuse or breaker. It could also be a bad connection as well.
You will want to check all connections at the batteries and at the fuse panel. Check all fuses and breakers near the battery and at the fuse panel. Another important thing to check the is negative connection on the batteries. It will connect to the chassis framing at some point creating a ground connection.
If this connection is bad it will prevent the batteries from working properly. These are the most likely causes for this issue. Dan RV Repair Club. Have a 05 eclipse attitude toy hauler.

They are powered by the blue wire coming out of the back of the converter. Your pup may have a safety switch on the galley or near one of the beds to turn off the 12v to the roof lights when the pup is folded down. Though most of this stuff is generic there are some peculiarities with each. Jun 22, Thanks all for responding, got everything hooked up correctly and it turns out that the reason that the lights werent turning on was because the cut of switch was not connected to the galley because it was torn apart for painting.
