Good morning. We plugged an electric heater AND an electric tea kettle into our kitchen outlet at the same time, and now none of the GFCI outlets are working. We tried resetting the bathroom reset button but that doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Can you explain with more detail what initiated the issue and what you've done to correct it? Do all the other outlets in the trailer work? Are you in a campground or connected to a home outlet? Have you been connected to this power source for awhile or did you just plug in?
The more information the better.

My apologies if I violated any forum rules. I just signed on for the first time tonight and saw a post on a problem i'm currently having.
1: Can you explain with more detail what initiated the issue and what you've done to correct it? I plugged into a 30 amp panel at a RV park in Prescott, AZ. The breaker on the tower felt loose when I plugged into it, but everything worked. The next morning I discovered that all of the CGFI outlets were dead, but the one with the reset button had the indicator light illuminated orange. I checked the GFIC breaker in the panel and noted that it had not tripped. I cycled it off and then on again and the outlets were still dead and the indicator light was still orange. I pressed the 'test' button on the outlet and the reset button and the indicator light still glowed orange and none of the outlets on the GFCI circuit were still dead. We moved on to Apache Junction, AZ and stayed in a dry camping site for two days, using a Honda 2000 inverter, and the problems were the same. We're now in a park with full hook-up and 50 amp service with no change in the GFIC outlets.
Do all the other outlets in the trailer work? Yes
Are you in a campground or connected to a home outlet? Have you been connected to this power source for awhile or did you just plug in? Answered above, i think.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated..

JK -- there's a Parts Lookup link on the menu bar above. When I looked at the list for your '21 Reflection, the following GFCI is the one used in your unit: https://www.granddesignrv.com/owner-...s/detail/30502
Google says it's a standard residential GFCI: https://www.gescan.com/products/24-s...ceptacle-black
Good luck with your troubleshooting and please post back with what you find.

Turned out to be a faulty outlet. Must have damaged it at the previous park. Replaced the outlet and all of the others ‘downstream’ are back to functioning as normal. Anyone with a screw driver can do it. Just kill the power at the main breaker and make sure to identify ‘load’ and ‘line’ wires and put them in the right places.
thanks
