In my Fleetwood Jamboree the isolator solenoid should engage when you turn the ignition key - you may have wiring or fuse issue. When I had similar problem I just ran a wire from an empty slot in fuse box through fire wall grommet to the solenoid - the fuse slot of use energized with key turning so it was a quick/inexpensive fix.
Clever fix. Did that mean running a wire all the way from the engine power distribution center to the house battery compartment? ...
As I recall I purchased a "piggyback" fuse and used the radio fuse slot - mine was located near the drivers left knee - ran a wire through a nearby grommet. My rig had an old fashion battery isolator solenoid with 3 lugs - the middle one was used to power up the solenoid and that's where I attached the wire.
