  • Troubleshooting Outlets

    Discovered several outlets on my 2018 320MKS are not working. They are at the end of the kitchen island, bathroom and in the front storage compartment. Reset 2 gfi's and checked fuses and no change. Suggestions greatly appreciated! Gary & Sue

    Just to make sure.... There are no "fuses" in the 120 volt side of things. By "fuses", did you mean circuit breakers? If not, turn the breakers completely off, then back on again.

      Assuming that you have a 50A service, it is possible that one side is working, but the other is not. Try plugging into the 30A post outlet using a 30A male to 50A female adapter.

        As you probably suspect all of those outlets are on the "GFI" circuit. I traced all the circuits in my 315RLTS and below you'll see the diagram.

        In my trailer, if the microwave, or fireplace, is working then power is getting to L1 (the yellow 50A circuit). If NONE of the yellow "1" outlets (the GFI circuit) have power then I'd suspect either the circuit breaker itself or even the wire going INTO the breaker--at least that's where I'd check for power first.

        WARNING: If you're at all unsure of how to test for a live circuit please do yourself a favor and have a qualified technician check for you. Electricity can (and will) hurt you.

          Are the GfCI's resetting properly? If not, bad GFCI receipt is possible problem.
