I don't know your coach but if it uses the BIRD system then it sounds like it might be the chassis disconnect relay.....assuming you were basically connecting the chassis battery to the ignition/starter system with your jumper. The best approach might be to remove the known bad relay (take pictures of how it was connected first) and take care to tape up disconnected wires so you don't do any unintentional welding. See if the relay has any markings on it and go on line to see if you can source it. Failing that take it into your RV Dealer parts person together with coach details and see if they can replace it.
