No Power to Microwave

We just set up camp and I found the was no power at the microwave or neighboring outlets. I found the GFI outlet tripped in the bedroom, so I reset it. I regained power to the neighboring outlets, but still no power to the microwave. None of the house breakers were tripped but I reset them anyway, as well as the beaker at the pedestal...all to no avail. I only have one other GFI outlet in the bathroom, but resetting it did nothing. The power plug to the microwave is behind the microwave itself, so it is not easily accessible.

Any suggestions?

  • Thanks for the replies. The breakers at my inverter are fine. There is no power switch for my micro. It's looking like we will be without a microwave this trip...

  • On my 2004 southwind there is a switch, looks like an ordinary house switch that one way lets you use the electric water heater and switched the other way, allows you to use the Microwave. You can not use both at the same time. The switch is on the panel right next to the water heater switch near the kitchen sink. Do you perhaps have that same switch? And is it in the wrong position? Just a thought. Your MH is a Fleetwood isn't it?
  • On mine, there is a dedicated breaker on the inverter that controls the micro. There is a second breaker there that controls half of the receptacles.
