Ground Faults Circuits are off

[rondeb]

We have a Winnebago Sightseer 2012 33C. The galley plug and bathroom plug plus the bedroom plug by the head of the bed and the plug under the pull out buffet table are all off. There are ground fault plugs in the bathroom and under the pull out table in the buffet. Neither one of these ground faults are resetting the circuit. Does anyone know if there is another ground fault plug somewhere. The outside plug on the passenger side is not a ground fault. Are these all on the same circuit or is there 2 separate circuits since there is 2 ground fault plugs. I didn't think you need 2 ground fault plug ins for one circuit.

I had mayo30's problem this fall. Only one air worked. They replaced either the park's breaker or the plug on the post.

Was the GFI on the Inverter! Thanks for everyone's help

If you have an inverter, check the GFI outlet on it. It controls 4-5 inside outlet.

My Winnebago Adventurer has a ground fault under the upper kitchen cabinets where we plug the coffee pot into. that has tripped a few times.

Do you have a generator? See if the outlets work with the generator on like the OP found.

I'm in the same boat as of last night. I've been in a 30amp site for two weeks with no problems however then suddenly last night we lose half the plugs? When pushing the reset on the gfi the red light illuminates but does not reset. On the back bathroom no light comes on the gfi plug.

My GFCI issue was with a receptacle in one of my belly pans. It's mounted on the top of the pan, facing straight down. Problem with that is that on a GFCI box, they included/mandate a rubber gasket to prevent moisture from entering the box. Turns out that works really well. It also works really well at keeping any water IN THE BOX. So condensation had run down the inside of the exterior wall, down the wiring, and had collected in the box until it shorted out, having no way to escape.
I just wish I'd started with the basement outlets before tearing all of the outlets in the coach apart.

YOu said neither of the GFCIs reset the outlets.. Question is one of the GFCI's tripped? and refuses to reset?

Suggestion: Check the outside (patio) outlet.> Odds are it's dead too

Open it up,, Jump back as the water flows out. Dry it out, Things should now reset.

Yea!!!

And thanks for following up.

Did you check the power to the unit?50 amp. or 30 amp.?you may have only 1/2 power coming into the unit?

The guage on the wall says I have full 50 amp power and everything has power to it. Thanks for the suggestion I am open to everything and I will check anything someone has an idea

In a park in Missouri, the control panel said fifty but only one air came on and no lights. The box on the pole was shorted one leg to ground.

Must have been our issue also. As we tried the generator test and everything worked. When we left in the morning we pulled up to a pole in front of us and everything worked. So it was the pole. We were very happy to have that be the issue and not our RV lol

Happy Days are Here Again!!!! :B

So true. HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY Especially when you find out it isn't anything electrically wrong with the Coach. All we could think of was the worse LOL We are using an extension cord for the coffee pot and the computers and tomorrow we will move on to the next park and everything will be good again.

The winner and the easiest to fix. DH unplugged the RV I turned on the generator and everything works so it is our power pole. Thank you for your response. We were getting ready to stay another day here and go buy new ground faults etc. WE can now move on down the road. Such an easy fix. I will know the next time.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

You're welcome. Glad it was a very easy, however inconvenient, fix.
