No 12 volt power inside coach

We replaced chassis batteries on our 2006 vectra while on a trip. Everything worked fine after replacement. Came back from trip and 4 days later getting ready to go another trip and we have no power inside the coach. Checked batteries with volt meter and shows 12 volts. Generator cranks right up

Any suggestions

Did the Battery Disconnect switch get bumped? (Bottom switch on stack of switches on left as you open main door, right below the step switch.) That switch disconnects (most) things from the house/coach batteries.

I noticed while troubleshooting some electrical issues on my Journey, that there are two circuit breakers on the panel located above my generator that are 55 amp labeled coach breaker panel. Try that first.

There is usually a large breaker or bus near the batteries. It will be on the wall right where the positive lines from each connect. Check it.

Check the rocker switch on the dash and make sure it's on and didn't get bumped to the disconnect. That kills the power to the coach inside. I hope that's it.
