Same thing happened to me years ago and it was the breaker.
Thanks Oneilkeys for the answer to my problem and Moondoggie for presenting the problem. I had (until a moment ago) the same problem Moondoggie had except for the ginny problem. Could not run the 12 volt system, showed nothing for batteries etc on panel and was about to take to a local RV repair shop, even though still under warranty (It would take weeks at a Thor dealership!).

I finally figured out where the 50 amp breaker is located (duh) by your description and pushed the red button it (don't know if it moved) and also tried to move the yellow flag thingie away from me. My 12 volt system is now working.

I agree with having a surge protector. I use a Progressive $80+ dollar one at the 30 amp posts, and I know it must have saved me while in Florida. Take a look at the surge protector! Blew out due to storms or bad voltage at some RV parks, or both. The surge part no longer worked. Recently bought a new surge protector from Amazon. Will not plug-in without one.

This forum is invaluable. I do have a problem searching for specifics but really good. Also, Thanks to Ed Felker for his must have Axis-Vegas manual, and to those who link to it online.
