That would be us !
and we cannot stress enough...do a COMPLETE PDI !! do not 'assume' that you know how everything works and that it works properly.
We got caught up in that...it was a freezing winter morning in January..rainy, with possible freezing...in the back of our mind, we just wanted to hit the road for home.
Being experienced rv owners..haveing had a toyhualer and 2 motorhomes, previously,...we breezed through the pdi and I recorded it on my ipad just in case we forgot anything.
NEVER occurred to us to have him disconnect the Shore Power and make sure everything worked using the house batteries !
Long, well documented, story short....turns out the CW where the Axis was originally delivered, then transferred to KC CW for us...had robbed the unit of a critical electrical component and did not tell our CW !
Once we found the problem CW made an appointment the next day and we were in and out in about 2 hours or so.

So...that is our story...hoping purchasers learn from our lesson learned !!
