    GFCI Receptacle

    We just had our Momentum 350 serviced for our vacation. Our first time out our electrical sockets in the bedroom, bathroom, and living area were not working. The receptacles in the garage do work. I reset the GFCI Receptacle in the bathroom but we still can't get any power to these areas. All circuit breakers and fuses good. Does anyone know of a fix without taking it into the shop for servicing again. I am on my first real vacation in years and don't want to spend it in a shop. HELP!!!

    The GFCI in my 2014 380 only controls the bathroom outlet and the 2 outlets in the kitchen sink island. All others are on different circuits. I'm assuming from your post that the GFCI HAD tripped? You must have a circuit breaker that has tripped - or failed, and I wonder if that GFCI trip was unrelated?

    You may want to check the pedestal to make sure you're getting power on both legs. If you look at your panel in the trailer, it's split by two 50 amp breakers, left and right. Find the breaker that is service the outlets in question. Once you do that, look at other breakers on that same side and see if those outlets are affected as well.

    I have had my GFI giving me problems too. It even failed when connected to the genset. Either it is wiring problem or the GFI.

    You may have another GFI on another circuit. Make sure you check sockets located in the your belly boxes for a GFI.
