New Guy from Northern Virginia
Just bought a 2015 Keystone Passport Grand Touring 3220BH!
We are feeling the newbie anxieties and excitement of joining the RV world and looking forward to a summer of camping.

Welcome Virginia. We are in same club, I just purchased 2016 3220 BH. its been sitting in storage since I towed it from dealership. Checked it out Saturday and bit surprised batteries were completely dead. Plugged in to truck and checked to see if I left any lights on... Nope. However, the two ceiling lights in kitchen area and ceiling light in bathroom no worky. Going out today and tow it to house so I can investigate issue. Not real concerned, probably just loose wire.
Ok, dummy me. Got TT home and found Ceiling Light switch on control panel Also switch to control ceiling light in bathroom

Depending on how long it sat, this is not uncommon. You have electric drains that are always present: carbon monoxide detector, radio memory and display lights, antenna booster unless turned off, etc. They will over time drain you down. Some of these are also a part of the safety built into the system, so even the battery disconnect will not stop them. The only way to do that is to keep it plugged in, remove the negative battery terminal or install a battery disconnect at the battery.
Good luck.

Welcome to the forum from Southern MD. Congrats on the new Passport. I grew up in Loudoun County. Sterling Park to be specific. Back then there was only one real development of any size between the two. I left the area a long long time ago. It seems like a galaxy far far away. If you don't have a battery cutoff switch either buy one and install it or do it the way I did for the first year, I bought wing nuts so I could disconnect the negative terminal and save the battery. Have fun and enjoy. Lots of great places to camp within a few hours of you.
