Electrical Issues

Tripped circuit breaker? Try shutting them off applying light pressure toward off then turn back on.
In-operative receptacle in a slide out? Check under rig for damaged wiring by rodents.

Look for a GFCI outlet that's tripped. One GFCI usually controls several other outlets on the same line. If the manufacturer used black or dark brown GFCI's with the same colored buttons, they can be difficult to spot sometimes, so look closely.

Check for a tripped breaker in the breaker panel or a tripper GFCI receptacle.

You most likely have a GFI. Find it and see if it has tripped and reset it. If you have an inverter, you could have overloaded a circuit. Find the inverter and check the breakers on it for being tripped and reset.Check the main breaker panel for any tripped breakers and reset

I really dont know much about things like GFIs and GFCIs. My 5th wheel's breaker box is under the fold-out couch, where would i find what i'm looking for?

Google images.

Or instead I’ll try to explain. Open the cover on the breaker box and make sure all of the black “switches” are on or better yet, switch them off and back on because sometimes a tripped breaker looks like it’s still on.

GFCI are those special plugs in kitchens and baths with the little test and reset button between the receptacles. If they trip, you need to push the reset button firmly and deeply in with the tip of your finger. It also may have failed and need replaced.

GFCIs are usually in places like the bathroom. Do you have an outlet there? Look for a small button on it. Push the button in. If that does not fix it, look in the kitchen for the same thing and try it. Last resort, with the power disconnected from the trailer, take a screw driver and take the dead outlet apart and look. If you have b÷n using a space heater it is highly likely you have a burned wire. Where abouts are you living? Im in Salem area and for a fee would be willing to come and help you out.

GFI = Ground Fault Interrupter

its duplex receptacle with buttons in between the (2) outlets

check the kitchen outlets, bathroom outlets, and any outlet on the exterior of the trailer

the buttons are marked 'test' and 'reset'

its a safety device, detects leaky current to ground, like dropping your shaver into the wash basin, or leaky coffee maker shorting out inside etc..

sometimes they get damp inside and trip, sometimes they get old and need to be replaced

Thank you so very much! i found the restart switch and got it to work, i really appreciate all the help.

Glad its fixed now.
