Just read this line. GICI will nto reset
You mean when you reset it it immed trips?
This is very common in RV's. now there can be many causes but here is the diagnostic path:
Unplug EVERYTHING plugged into GFCI protected outlets These include the Kitchen, Bath(s) V the dining room table and possibly others. Some RV's it includes the converter and/or Fridge. (mine does not)
Note if Fridge works on A/C and converter is working, then they are NOT on the GFCI
Unplug everything. If it it does not trip. Plug things back in one at a time till it trips.. Then you have your problem.
If it still trips go pull the cover off the outside outlet. Stand back when you remove it or you may get wet.. Yup, that's a common problem.. Dry it out, you may wish to replace the outlet and re-cover and RE SEAL.. And that's the cure
NOTE; one Rver found that under his slide out there were two junction boxes (one at each en dof the folding arm_) And THEY were full of water.
