Need to get you a multimeter and start at the battery terminals and see where it stops.
The battery terminals will read 12.6-7VDC if fully charged and not have the shore power connected. It it reads less than 12.0VDC then your battery is 50% charged or dead. This will jump to 13.6VDC when you hookup to shore power telling you all is OK and your battery is being charged.
Sounds like you have a disconnect between the 12VDC distribution panel and the battery. It appears to be good between the 12VDC distribution panel to the converter/charger that comes on when you plug into shore power.
