2006 Crossroads Zinger electrical problem
Have 31ft.rear kitchen model and the outside receptacle and the one receptacle in rear of kitchen are not working. Does anyone have access to an electrical schematic for this model.

- Unplug everything in the GFI circuits to isolate the culprit.
Get electrical help if you need it.
You have a potentially very serious safety issue.
Call me if you wish. I can help you. Maryetta wrote:
Yes the GFCI kept tripping so we replaced it but the new one does the same. We replaced it with a regular receptacle to see what would happen and it works but the other 2 still do not work.
GFCI tripping cause it was sensing an issue downstream---ground fault
Need to pull each outlet and check wiring/contacts etc.
Start with outlet closest to the GFCI outlet- I would suggest getting one of those inexpensive electrical plug testers and see if anything shows up before I started tearing into things.
A lot of campers are put together with push in wires instead of a higher grade. They get particularly finicky when heavy loads are plugged into the plugs and there is a very tiny contact point where the connectors bite into the wiring.
The odd thing about electrical wiring is the white return wire is often the problem. - Yes the GFCI kept tripping so we replaced it but the new one does the same. We replaced it with a regular receptacle to see what would happen and it works but the other 2 still do not work.
- Doubt they even had a schematic when they did the wiring.
Have you checked for a tripped GFCI outlet?
Kitchen/outside receptacles are most likely on a GFCI fed circuit
