Default Battery

After leaving my electric campsite, I stopped to dump. I always go innside and run the water with the pump to rinse things. This time, when I turned on the pump, I got a load beep and then all the battery power went off. I checked all the fuses and they were fine. When I got it home I plugged it in and the house electricty worked fine and I then had power again. Is this the sign of a bad battery or is there another problem.

Sounds like a problem with the power transfer switch. Is the power source switch on shore power, generator or in between? The water pump should run off 12 volt power, is the water pump switch "ON"? What exactly doesn't work?

Joseph, it does sound like a set of bad batteries or bad cables or bad connections at the batteries. When you hooked up to shore power, the battery charger took over and supplied 12 volt power to run the pump.
