This site saved me somemore hair again!

Down in south Louisiana and freeze has come in. Lines are drained and blown out. Some gray water in the tank. Drained it out and put some anti-freeze in the tank. Opened the valve to put a little anti-freeze in the macerator pump area. Thought I'd get my 120v 75 watt cone light and put in the pump area. No power in the outlet at the 50 amp cord area. Hum. Went to the other exterior outlet on the other side compartment and nothing. Checked all the breakers. Nothing tripped. Hum. On the verge of freak out and wondering how in the world I'm gonna get a wiring diagram. Came inside, got on this site and used the Google search for the Jayco Forum. Put in "outside outlets". Up popped a thread stating that outside outlets on series in with a GFI outlet. Duh! They are outside outlets, they need to be on GFI. Went straight to the bathroom vanity and there is a GFI tripped! Reset and Bam! Power! Thanks guys. And thanks for that Google search that just searches this forum!

We have all been there and done that! We all learn from each other's mistakes. Great learning curve on here.
