What year and model TM do you have?

Do you need to start it on propane, ignite it then change your power source?
No

I also found a box on the outside wall where there appears to be a piolet light and an ignition switch. Does that control the fridge or hot water?
I'm not recognizing this description. There are no control boxes on the outside of the TM. Can you provide a picture?

You should start by opening the converter box, on the wall in the hall outside the bathroom, down
near the floor. Inside you will find 4 or 5 circuit breakers (black snap handles). These control the 120 VAC distribution within the trailer. Snap each one off, then on.

Near the circuit breakers you will see a row of 12 or more fuses - small colored plastic items. These control the 12 VDC distribution within the trailer. Pull each one, confirm by eye that the small U-shaped loop of metal within each one is complete (not broken), and then put it back.

If you open the outside panels behind the refrig, you will find that the refrig cord is plugged into a normal household outlet. Confirm that the outlet is "live". By the way, are any of the indoor outlets live?

Let us know.
