Hi there! Recently picked up a 2012 hawk from four wheel campers. I am just going through the electrical  and am wondering why the kill switch on my circuit breaker doesn't seem to do anything (turn off over head lights, ect..). Any thoughts?

mtnRN welcome to the site.

 

What I'm seeing in the picture is a DC fuse block for Battery power and a AC circuit breaker,120 volt house current.

 

I'm not sure what you might be calling a kill switch?  The circuit breaker will only kill incoming 120 volt AC current most likely for a 120 volt power outlet.

 

There would be a pull knob either silver or red that is maybe under the cabinet on on the face that pushed in will disconnect the camper battery to the fuse block supplying the lights or anything that uses 12 volt DC current.

.

 

Something like this picture.
