2GFI that I know of, one in the bath and a second at the outdoor 110 plug, normally on the curb side.

Double check the wiring at the GFCI, they don't all connect the same, so it's very easy to miss connect a replacement. My coach (318 RLT) only has the one GFI in the bathroom, that in turn feeds kitchen, O/S outlet and such.

Check GFCI in bathroom, ours runs the plug outlets need the dinning room table, right side plug near the frig, an center island plugs, everything else is on GFI in storage area curb side ...
Some trailers may only have one an not two, I thought ours only had one till I read Edd's post an
looked an low an behold we had on in the storage area like he had ....

Ok, does the fridge power come off same GFI as the kitchen? Today the DW, turned on fridge, go AC code pupped up.
Bath GFI won't reset, and is tripped. Going to get new GFI, just a curious assumption on my part
Thanks

If you pull the refer panel you can check power there, at the outlet. Any 110 breakers tripped?

I will check that. After we tested fridge, we have no a/c as well. Does everything pass thru 1 GFCI?
It is a head scratcher for me

Ok, sorted it out. And yes the fridge powers thru the GFCI in the bath room. Apparently everything passes thru it.

To test press the “TEST” button in. The
“RESET” button should pop out. Power should now be turned off at
this receptacle and any receptacles down line. To restore power
push, then release the “RESET” button. Check each plug that is not working. If it has an appliance running off it, the appliance may be at fault.

As I stated above, the GFI in the bathroom connects the left side of the trailer to include the frig, TV etc, GFI in storage compartment (if GFI is there) will connect the plugs on the left side of the trailer ....
An I agree if you have an appliance that is bad or you connect something that is over voltage it darn sure wil trip the GFI

Don't forget that RV mfrs use the absolute cheapest cr@p they can, so it wouldn't surprise me that the GFI is just...junk. I'd replace it with a =good= one, if it keeps tripping. Also, like circuit breakers, if they trip more than 2-3 times, they should be replaced anyway. Lyle |

2021 Durango Half Ton 283rlt. All the GFCI outlets quit. Read all these posts and for the most part they are correct. the GFCI outlets string down stream from a main GFCI with the reset buttons (mine is in the bathroom). This outlet was dead also. I called the dealer and they helped me find a second breaker panel in the "basement near the inverter which was tripped. In my unit it was mounted on the ceiling of the basement just inside the curb side access door. Hope this helps. Good luck.
