50 AMP power cord

My Furrion cord is plugged into a 30 AMP adapter. The male end has the LED blue lights indicating power to the cord. The Furrion inlet on the 5th wheel does not have the blue light lit indicating power to the RV. Wonder what's up, it's a 2018 model.

Microwave works and after disconnecting the battery and also plugging and unplugging the power cord, I have determined the blue light is out on the cover. What a shame! It's a 2018 and we're getting ready to go on our 3rd camping trip!

My cord has 2 blue LEDs and the receptacle on the side of the RV has one. None of them work anymore. (RV power is fine)

If you are asking me there is only one light on the cover, it just shows there is power to the unit period nothing else. No difference than the little light in the end of some extension cords that shows there is power on the cord.

Go out and take a look at the cover over your 50Amp plug cover on your GD as I'm sure you have the cover as my Reflection. You just see one light.

The 30 amp plug provides power to both hot legs otherwise only half of the trailer would have power when at a 30amp pedestal. I have a hard wired PI surge protector and I show 120 on both legs. Sure you still only have 30amps total to the whole trailer.

When mine went out and I was hooked up to my 30amp at my house (have 50amp also but no reason to use it when just plugged in to charge the batteries) after changing it out had blue lamp. The blue just look to see if power is available not voltage on both legs.

I have a 2018 and my blue light stopped working and I had power to the trailer. Called the factory they asked my to send them a picture. I did and got an email back saying new one on its way to me. I had already told them that I would change it out myself. A few days later it arrived and I went out and removed the old one and installed the new one and worked fine.

if you do have power in the rv, which you didn't say, then the blue LED is out. They are known to have issues from water getting in.
