YOu will need. a "Trouble light" or "Drop light" Open a window and put the light end in the RV the other end plugs into the other half of the GFCI (This is a visual "TRIPPED" indicator)
Next turn off ALL breakers in the rv
Now plug it in and verify light is still on
Now one at a time turn on first the MAIN breaker.. light still on GOOD
now each branch. When the light goes off turn that breaker off and note it's circuit.
Not reset the GFCI. verify light on.. And continue with the NEXT breaker till you have all of them turned on save the ones that trip. Note the circuits that Tripped and post a reply with those circuits.
Often it's the converter or Fridge or Water heater. But not always.
