    Post Power not working to NON-GFCI outlets (GFCI outlets ARE working)

    Help! I had an electric heater plugged in and it caused power outage to my trailer. The GFCI outlets ARE working, including my microwave and kitchen and bathroom outlets, however my lights, and other outlets are NOT working. I've reset all circuit breakers with no luck. Any recommendations?

    Lights and sockets are 2 completely separate systems

    Have you checked the pedestal?

    What type of trailer?

    Lights are 12 volt, so you have something else going on if they are out.

    I have a 2021 GD Transcend trailer. I don't know what a pedestal is in relation to the trailer. I've only addressed the breaker panel located near a cupboard in the kitchen. (Thanks for replying!)

    The “pedestal” is part of the campground that you have plugged your power cord into

    I know I'm getting power from the pedestal since my microwave and GFCI outlets are working. I previously had power to all lights and outlets before using the electric heater.

    What outlets are NOT working?
    Have they ever worked?
    When checking breakers did you turn them off then back on?
    What lights? All? Some?

    The bedroom and living room outlets are not working. The overhead lights are not working. The exterior light is not working.Yes, they all worked perfectly fine before I used the heater. Yes, I turned them off then back on. I'm guessing I need to replace the fuses...?

    Is your trailer 50 amp or 30?

    Did you unplug the heater? Did you happen to notice the wattage on it?
