Well done rookie, lol! ;)
This is a good example of how a meter can lead to a proper diagnosis. A meter should be in the toolbox of every RV owner, IMO. The problem is that folks that have never owned one are in fear of using one, the fear of the unknown. The reality is that learning the various functions of a meter is easy and it can lead to prompt diagnosis of failures in the two electrical systems of an RV. A meter is also useful to diagnose exterior light failures which are powered by the tow vehicle power.
There have been Forum member that have posted electrical problems and torn apart a whole furnace replacing parts as they go because they don't want to use a meter.
Glad to hear the fix was simple.
