All good. Checked 30A in-line fuse underneath trailer inline with batteries. All good. I plugged trailer into my truck and all dc power works. Lights came on, awning power is there. I’m sure it’s just a fuse or a manual breaker but I can’t for the life of me find it.

First off, fuses and breakers either work or they don't, they don't "partially" work. If lights are dim and awning slow or not working, it's a voltage or connection problem.
I'd check the batteries first. What voltage are they at when not plugged into shore power? How many times have they been run down very low? Could be bad/weak batteries.
Next, I'd check ground connections. With a 2015 rig, many people have reported corroded ground connections with older rigs for battery and other wiring circuits. Slide under the rig and make sure all frame connections are good and clean.
