Please check the outlet that the Hot (Black wire?) connects to the smaller slot (brass screw) and the Neutral (s/b White wire) connects to the wide slot and the silver screw.
Oh, I do believe you are right about the Earth ground, it didn't even occur to me but I believe it gives the neutral several paths and that's not good, exception being if the box or plug is NOT already grounded, I will take the earth ground off and test he wire.
And yes checking the polarity of the outlet is next, I will do that at the same time I check the ground. I have been extremely busy but the camper has been unplugged when not working on it.
Thanks again everyone!
