The house batteries are at about 12 1/2 volts. SO that are holding their charge and they are still Okay. Any thoughts on what would have caused the chassis battery to go dead? Also, I have roadside assistance. What to do now? Thank you for your thoughts.

I recently had the same issue with my chassis battery. Started good for the longest time then finally gave up the ghost. Boosted it and it started, ran for 30+minutes, shut off for 10 or so then tried to start again and it did but by morning it was totally discharged again. It is a Ford chassis (2016) and apparently they have been having an issue with some of the batteries. Took back to Ford dealer and they replaced. (BY accessing thru front passenger wheel, which I made them aware of thanks to the FORUM). l'm curious if you're MH will start on its own the next day.
