Outlet plug issue
Hi, we have our Montana High Country 379RD parked in a covered facility with a battery tender. Not one of the plug in outlets work but the lights, slides, awning etc. work. Does it need shore power for the outlets to work?

Yes - you need to be plugged in to shore power.
Some of my past RVs had a “cigarette lighter” outlet that had 12 volt power.

Just to expand a little, everything you named is powered by 12 vdc. The outlets are 120 vac.

Instead of a battery tender, just plug the rig into 120 volt power and let the converter maintain the battery.
