I just got here in Muskogee, Ok set up and one side of MH has no power. I checked the breaker box reset all the breakers and nothing. Neither tv works the one in the bedroom or the one in the living room. None of the plugs in the beedroom work the fridge is going wacko flashing no FL what the heck that means I don't have a clue.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Mike

Check GFI breaker... usually one in bathroom, maybe another in the kitchen area.
Might need to be reset.

If not gfi you may want to check for a loose wire or braker in the inverter charger.

If you are running 50 Amp, it's possible that you have lost one leg of the 50 Amp. If you have a voltmeter, remove the shorepower cord and measure the voltage on the left and right side of the receptical.

Just had another thought... is the main breaker on in the electrical box where you plugged it at? I always turn the 30 amp (or 50, whichever I am using) off when before I unplug. Re: the fridge.. is the LP on? Is the refrig on auto or can you move it to gas only?

Since you didn't give us much info(50 amp, inverter or converter, Auto Transfer Switch) all we can do is guess?? If you have an inverter, check the breakers on it.. Tough I would start at the pedistal with a volt meter and work my way into the coach.. If you have a Auto transfer switch, I'd check it to make sure the voltage is going to the main panel.. As someone else has said after checking all of the GFI's and still no power.. Mike M..

We have two circuit breakers located on the generator that have all AC through them. Don't know about yours, but might check there.

assuming you have a inverter system and it will have two 30 amp circuts and it sounds like one of the two breakers have tripped on the inverter and or one of the GFI circuts has tripped most likely found on the bathroom plug in
Its hard to really help as you dont say if you have diesel or gas, inverter or not, 50 amp or 30 plug in for SP or if your even on shore power etc

no FL on fridge means "no flame" - propane side of fridge didn't fire up.

Power problems: We once had an issue where only one AC outlet in the whole rig was working. There's a "push-in" reset button on the side of our inverter/charger that had popped. Pushed in, everything came on. Didn't even know it was there until it happened.

TV's are usually run through the inverter, so as others stated check for breakers there and feeding the inverter. Ours has a built in transfer switch in the inverter that bypasses invert when shore power/gen applied. If feed cb is tripped, ours is next to inverter in mini breaker box, then no power through inverter.
