Battery question
This may be a stupid question, but here we go. If I have a battery that doesn't charge, would that stop the lights in my camper from working. Thanks in advance for the help.

Number 1 thank you to everyone that took time to give me some advice on this issue.
Here is where we are at this moment. The battery that I have is a deep cycle 24DCM, 525 MCA, and 140 RC.
I am plugged into shore power. When plugged in the only thing that is working is the microwave which is plugged into a 110v plug. I plugged a lamp into the plugs in the camper and they all worked.
At this point I am thinking I have a converter issue. The converter is a WFCO 3-Stage Converter Model: WF-8955AN W/plastic. I need some direction on what and how to check the converter to see if it needs to be replaced. I do not have much experience with electrical so any help is much appreciated.
Best to call the guys at bestconverter.com but in the mean time, I would measure the voltage on your DC fuse board where the red and white wire land. Should be 13.6 there and all over the board unless it happens to be in the boost mode, then it will be higher. I highly doubt your converter is on a GFI circuit unless some knot head moved there because they don't (converter and GFI) play well together. Never seen one factory connected to GFCI but maybe there is. Good luck and call them, they will set you straight.
