No DC Power to the DC Circuits With the Batteries at 12.7 Volts

[dedendzer]

Our lead acid batteries were new last year.  They were in the garage all winter and were on trickle charger.  I put them into the Oliver and connected the thick cables on which go to the inverter,  and the smaller cables which feed the DC circuits.  The inverter works fine using the batteries to provide the AC plugs.  None of the DC items are getting any power such as lights, water pump, jack, etc.

There is a breaker under the street side bed.  There was a wire on it that had a 1 amp fuse in the line.  Replaced it with a new fuse.  Still not getting DC power.  There is a red button sticking out of the breaker housing and I can move it in and out about 1/4 inch.  

I also checked the two green, 30 amp  fuses on the DC panel.  OK.  

Never had this problem during the last 10 years we’ve owned it.  

Does anyone have any experience or similar problem?

Does your breaker look like this?  If so, fold the “flag” part back in to reset the breaker like the bottom picture.

 That’s exactly what the problem was.  Thank you so much.  We’re back in business after having spent the better part of two days trying to solve this.

If you’re not familiar with these breakers it can be confusing.  Ask me how I know!  Mike

OK - how do you know? 🤪

Well, it’s a long, long story.  Best told over a couple of cold beers.  I’ll buy. 🍺🍺
