Hello all, I'm new to the camper world and this forum so forgive me if the questions have already been addressed. I bought a 2018 GD imagine 2150 Friday and took the family camping. My possible issue is that I hooked up to 30amp at campsite but once my batteries drained I had no power anywhere. I had the electric key turned on for the entire trip but I had to hook up cable to my truck several times and charge my batteries to get power back on. Am I doing something wrong because I was assuming that while hooked up to campsite I would have constant power. I bought the camper from my mom (recently went through a divorce and didn't feel comfortable pulling it so she bought an rv instead) and it had been used very very little. I wouldn't think anything would have went bad because of how little it had been used. Breakers and fuses were all good. Thanks in advance for any info.

Did you check to see if the converter breaker is turned on in the power distribution panel?
Do you know where the converter is?
The converter is the item in the RV that converts 120 v ac into 12 v dc which is what most of the RV uses for power.

There is a control box indside with breakers for hot water heater, refrigerator, air conditioner, microwave, etc. There are also fuses inside that box. I checked those. If there is another location for a breaker then I am unaware of where it is.
also, I do not know where the converter is.

It is possible to blow the fuses on the converter output if at anytime the battery was momentarily misconnected. + wire to minus terminal, - wire to + terminal. Find the converter and check. Follow the heavy battery wires.
The battery wire attached to the frame should be connected to the battery - terminal.Ted
