It sounds as though your problems are all chassis 12V things, at least the ones you've listed. That at least narrows down the scope of the systems to debug. These are basically the same as for any truck. A competent vehicle shop (not just RV shop) should be able to troubleshoot them. If you are also having trouble with the house electrical system, then that's a somewhat different story and I'd be more selective in looking for professionals.
As others have said, debugging electrical problems can be a long, laborious process. You might be able to do a quick visual inspection of the wiring and find some sorts of problems. Certain wire types used in some vehicles, for instance, has organic (soy-based) insulation that can be attractive to some critters, and a chewed wiring harness can cause all sorts of weird and unpleasant oddities.
