ANSWER Greetings Dean thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.

Wow, this seems like the time of year for RV electrical problems. I just got done answering exactly the same question from another RVer. So in order to save typing time, I am going to refer to the answer I just gave to this question Our RV Interior Lights Only Work When We Are Plugged In Or Generator Is Running. The answer I gave should help you track down your problem.

I wish you the best of luck and Happy RVing.
