Lost power in part of 5th wheel
2002 Keystone Challenger 29TIB Fifth wheel
Last night, I plugged in a space heater in the 'upstairs' area of my 5th wheel. I also had a small heater plugged in downstairs in the living room area. They had both been running for 10-15 minutes, then I lose power to the wall receptacles in the downstairs and 2 plugs upstairs. I figured I had overloaded the circuit, so I unplugged the heaters and opened the breaker box to reset (what I thought would be) a popped breaker. None of the breakers appeared to need resetting. I clicked each one off, then on again, but it did not fix the problem. So I thought maybe the GFCI had triggered. Went up to the bathroom, that receptacle worked fine. I pressed 'test' and reset just in case, but it did not fix my loss of power downstairs.
Anything that would run off of battery (12v ceiling lights & outside porch light) work fine. The wall plugs in the laundry closet, bathroom, and next to the bed all work. Water heater and a/c work. Slide motors work. Outside power receptacle on camper works.
I do not have power to: the 8 downstairs wall outlets, the power outlet for the refrigerator (it is a residential type fridge, not a typical RV 3-way), the ceiling fan in living room, the ceiling fixture over the dining area in the living room slide out, the wall sconce in the living room slide out.
I feel like there is either a breaker somewhere that needs to be reset or a GFCI tripped, but I cannot find the right reset to fix this issue.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where another breaker box or GFCI plug in my 5th wheel that I can reset? Or any additional troubleshooting suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
