Did you leave your fridge turned on and drained the battery?

There should be TWO fuses in the cable between the S/B and the L/B as well as the relay (normally in-line fuse holders), check both fuses and if one has gone replace BOTH!
What type of charging system do you have for the L/B is it a Willinton kit, or some other Voltage Sensitive Relay type, or is controlled by the Ignition switch, if you know the type then you can check the relay for operation (hand on the relay and you will feel it click), if its a VSR type then get the rev's up on the alternator and you should feel it click, otherwise check when the Ignition is turned ON.
