Update: Well it seemed strange to have the bed compressor and the satellite controller on the same circuit and indeed that was correct and they are not. I have the bed working. The plug was loose and one of the controllers was also disconnected from the compressor. When we tightened the plug we had power and when we plugged in the other controller it also worked. So too separate issues and one resolved.
Now the satellite controller. Nothing has worked. I have plugs for everything but the controller and all outlets work. The controller is direct wired into a power supply which was replaced two weeks ago. It all worked for the day I used it to test. I then drove two hours and not working. I am guessing a connection has come loose to the power supply. I don't understand why this has a separate box known as a power supply but is suspect it has something to do with the power in and power out to raise the satellite.
I have reset all breakers. Studied my inverter and learned more about my power control center. It is a 2000 Magnum by the way. Forgot to mention that. Cannot find any breakers on it or outside gfi but outside outlets are hot and it appears everything in the coach works but the satellite for tv. So will have to endure listening to British Open on satellite radio. Roughing it.
