NO 12V power

We have a "new to us" 2005 25' Safari. Apparently, it sat in storage for many years before the guy that we bought from picked it up from its original owners to flip. We cannot get the 12V to work. The batteries are good and charged. We suspect that the battery disconnect behind the sofa is the culprit. It has two fuses which I changed.... The light on the battery disconnect switch by the door is always red.... (I presume that it would change to green?) Our older AS did not have this feature.

Does anyone have any insight? Before I remove the sofa (again)! Also, the fridge does not run on propane... it appears to switch to propane when on shore power, but when disconnected from power, shuts off. Could this be related to the no 12V power issue?

Thanks in advance!

Our battery disconnect switch is always red unless we're off shore power and in "store." Our 12 V was recently out in our 2011 27 FB and the wiring to the disconnect soleniod was damaged and the fuse was blown. Not sure where it's located on your unit (ours was under the bed near the battery), but it could be something like that.
