No power from batteries

So I go to open the slide and nothing..notice the lights don't even come on.
Open the battery compartment, move one wire with a 20amp inline fuse and everything works. My question is what should I be looking for now? Loose wire, bad connection, possible broken wire? Batteries show full power.

This is on a Quantum WS31. Hopefully everything works when I leave tomorrow.

Thanks, Pete

Turn on the main power/use store/ salesmen/or whatever their calling it today switch.

Either that, or your batteries are dead or there is a main breaker tripped.

Start easy first.

Look for the bad connection on the wire you moved or what it may have moved.

"Hope" is not a solution.

Trace the positive wires from the house battery bank. One goes to a 50 amp DC breaker that supplies the DC loads when the battery disconnect (USE/STORE Switch) is closed (In USE).
