No power

[Candy22]

Hi I have a big horn 2008 5th wheel. Smy2 slide outs refrigerator and kitchen plug is not working does anyone know what it could be?

If you have a multimeter and know how to use it (or take a fan or light plug it in to get a similar result).

- Start at the shore power outlet. Does it have power?
- Next plug in the shore power cord and check the far end. Does it have power?
- Next check the breakers in the trailer. Are they tripped?
- Ideally, you would pull the power panel out and check that power is getting to the panel and going out on each breaker but if uncomfortable, check if any of the household style outlets have power.
- Trying the GFCI is an option.

You might also check the voltage on the battery. The odd thing is
- The slide out should be running on 12v DC battery power.
- The kitchen plug should be running on 120v AC shore power.
- The fridge depends on the type. Some on 12v DC others run on 120v AC and some can use either.

Is there anything electrical that is running?

Well, we never heard back from the OP.

He may be busy trying all the ideas.

Did OP leave us? Be nice to get an update so we can throw more ideas out there.

In addition to the previous suggestions also check to be sure the electric feed wires under the slides are not pinched or cut fro slide movement. I had a like problem with my stove once. The propane lead was pinched shutting off the propane to the stove.

Check the fuses. Is it plugged in or not?

start at the source of power .

You could also be missing one of your hot legs of 120 vac power. Are you on 50 amp or 30 amp service?

Is this a residential refrigerator or gas electric? If residential it should be on a separate decacated outlet and which is also powered by an invertor. Fridge either residential or gas electric will never be the main electric on a GFCI.

Check underneath the slide. I had a 2006 bighorn and the wire loom would rub against the tires until the wires finally separated.

Worth a try... reset GFI.. usually located in bathroom.
