You are plugged into the house
is the outlet's breaker popped?
Is the outlet a GFCI?
Any breakers in the RV tripped
If the fireplace plugs in is it Plug - - Outlet or plug=outlet (Plug out of outlet)
DO you have ether a Multi-Meter or at the very least a 3-light outlet tester
If not get a multi Meter and learn how to use it
Also get a 3-light outlet tester and a 15-30 Puck adapter so you can plug the 3LT into a 30 amp outlet (Before you plug in the RV) learn the meaning of the 3 lights (GREEN-Green GOOD.. Green-Red bad is a general rule GREEN Dark Dark also bad)
These are the basics.
Now the next level
Does it operate off on/off buttons or a turn the dial Thermostat on the unit or via an Infrared Remote..
If Remote: Dead battery in remote or plastic strip still in placew
Both Fluorescent and some LED lights will mess up I/R reomtes. Turn all lights off and try then turn them back on (This is far down the list but happens)
After that it's seek help I fear.
