Not unusual to be chassis battery.
You will also have a safety override that keeps ypu from driving off
with the steps down.
This is often one of the Parasitic Battery drains that will kill the battery
in a couple of weeks.
I frequently reach under it and unplug the steps if camping for awhile
without moving to protect the chassis battery more.
Because of where our rig is parked at home, it is easy to unhook the chassis battery and therefore I do because the chassis battery drains down quite far in a month's time. Maybe yours is the reason why.
