Look for a sizable fuse or fusible link near the battery in the main positive lead.
If there is one and it's blown, check carefully for shorts on the lead(s) going from the battery to the various things before replacing it. Possibly a wire was chafed or chewed on or something and opening the door/stepping in shifted things enough to short it out.
Another possible thing to check is that the other end of the ground lead from the battery is solidly connected to the chassis of the trailer and not fatigued, etc.
