On our last trip, the GFCI outlet inthe bathroom tripped on our 2014 Keystone. After a rest all seemed well. Later in the day it tripped again. It has stayed tripped ever since. From what I can tell there are at least 5 outlets daisy chained on this one outlet, so none of them work. I have:Replaced the GFCI outlet with a new one. Still trips.Looked inside every outlet and insured no lose wires. Still trips.I should also add that I got the GFCI not to trip by removing all the outlets from the GFCI box, but once I put the second white wire back in it trips. What am I missing here?

Where are you plugging in at to test this? If at home and you are on a GFI protected circuit from the house sometimes they don't play well together with the trailer. If at a campground, I would check for a loose wire on the converter.(actually the circuit breaker)

It's probably the fridge's heater that's tripping it. Try unplugging to see if it still pops - if so then replace the element.

One other thought: GFI outlets can go bad. I'm not an electrician and I have no idea how to test the outlet, but before you start replacing big things maybe have an electrician check the outlet. Just saying.

Your statement "GFCI not to trip by removing all the outlets from the GFCI box, but once I put the second white wire back in it trips...." caught my eye. I assume you are talking about the white "load" wire. If yes, unplug things on this load wire - to see which specific item is making the GFCI outlet trip. For visual, see normal outlets on right side of GFCI outlet within - click here - Note: Remember to check the normal looking outlet on external side the TT as well..
