Gfci outlets not working when on inverter

My gfci outlets are not working on my 2021 seneca 37k when running on inverter, all other outlets work fine, when plugged in to shore power all outlets work, any ideas ?

As Crow says, not all outlets are powered by the inverter. Did they ever work while using the inverter?

Don't forget the need for more batteries. Goes hand in hand with inverter usage.

And keep in mind you will need to run larger gauge battery cables (awg size) going from the new inverter back to your new battery bank.
