Remove the cover panel on test for DC on those terminal lugs.......
Even if you reversed the battery cables and blew the Two 40A Reverse Polarity Fuses the converter would still provide your RV with the necessary DC Voltage.
Blown Reverse Polarity fuses protect converter/charger from incorrect battery install. They do NOT prevent converter from supplying the DC Dist Individual Fuses
So check those 40A fuses just so you know battery can be recharged from converter and that Battery can supply DC Dist w/o converter.
But you need to test that converter DC output right at those terminals and the lead/load sides of those fuse clips. No DC on lead side of those fuse clips.......bad board
DC Voltage requirements for propane appliances to operate is 10.5V to 15V (fridge panel lights will illuminate down to 4.5V....IF there is DC)
