Did you drain the plumbing in between? If you apply power to the electric side of the water heater when it is empty, it will burn out the heating element.

Do you have an inside switch for electric for the water heater? Some trailers/rvs do and some don't. Is that inside switch on?

Did you check the breaker for the water heater? Reset it by flipping solidly to off and then back on.

Assuming nobody opened the outside panel door for the water heater and turned the switch off in the lower left-hand corner of the water heater itself. Most of those switches are "upside down", the top is OFF and the bottom is ON. Also open the panel and look for that switch - they have been known to melt.
