We’re new to RVing with a 2006 Dynamax Isata and have just encountered a lock issue. The FOB and key have always worked fine until today. Yesterday, after an all-day power outage in NE Wyoming, we used the RV microwave to cook. The FOB locked and unlocked both the coach and cab doors without any problems. We started the generator, and everything was fine until we were ready to leave, when we found the coach's side door locked and couldn’t unlock it from the inside. The FOB didn’t help, so we exited through the front cab door and tried unlocking the coach door from outside, but it wouldn’t budge. Neither the key nor the FOB worked. The two cab doors can still be locked and unlocked with the key, but the FOB won’t operate them either. Pressing the FOB buttons lights up the red indicator, but nothing happens with the locks. The lower storage compartments under the coach stay unlocked and won’t lock, even with the keys. We replaced the FOB battery, so that’s likely not the issue. We suspect something might be jammed in the coach side door, preventing it from working, but we aren’t sure how to check without causing damage. The RV is winterized, plugged into power, and the main cab battery has been removed for the season. Any ideas?
