Is this your first time trying to run the AC?
Are you plugged in to shore power (120V AC)?
Can you confirm 120V AC power is live in the camper?
Can you confirm that the 120V AC breaker for the air con is in the "on" position?

Do other 120V AC items work off of the shore power? I was just thinking that your symptoms sound like there is no 120V AC being provided. Sounds too simple to be the culprit, but worth verifying!

Did you physically turn the breakers off then back on? Sounds simple but sometimes one will partially trip and look like it is on. Could be a loose connection on the back of the breaker, or even a bad breaker.

Turned out to be something simple, I first download the domestic service manual and conducted continuity checks of everything and still nothing, so I decided to open up the box that the troubleshooting guides did not mention,nor trouble shoot, there was a disconnected wire set that came apart, 3 hours later a 2 minute fix solved the ac problem
