1988 Tioga Motorhome on Ford Econoline chassis. I started it several times
this afternoon and everything was fine. Then I turned the key on and
attempted to start it again and nothing happened. I mean NOTHING. No
guages worked, no headlights or clearance lights, no starter noise or
clicking sound. Just nothing! Any idea what could cause all these things
to quit working at once?

Your battery or the cables to the battery or the ignition switch (the
one your key goes into).

Start by cleaning the battery connections. If no joy, check the
fuse links. The fuse links probably come off of the starter
relay (solenoid).

Good luck, no one can butcher a vehicle wiring system quite like
a motorhome manufacturer.
