37FS No power in Bathroom / Kitch / Exterior outlets

Hello,

I am having an issue with the above outlets. I've checked for power behind the only gfci outlet I can find, which is in the bathroom at the vanity and have none. Is there another Gfci somewhere I'm not aware of???

I DO have power on TVs, Microwave, Bedroom and outlet near the mirror on the bulkhead between the living room and shower.

Condition is the same on Gen / Shore

Thanks

You probably have another GFCI located someplace in your coach or storage compartment. Also make sure that you did reset the GFCI. Sometimes they don't want to reset.....

I have removed the gfci in the bathroom and do not have power at the leads. Any other gfcis in the 37fs besides the bathroom??

Tripped breaker that doesn't show it as being tripped? That GFCI could be fed directly from the breakers. You might try resetting the breakers.

It could also be a failed breaker or the wire has come loose at the breaker. This GFCI won't be fed by another GFCI so if there's no power at the input to the GFCI, you've got either a failed breaker or an open wire somewhere.

You most likely just tripped a breaker getting out of bed. Look at the 3 breakers on the side of the bed. Done that a time or two.

*When I say tripped, I mean, you kicked it with your foot.

As it turns out, I have about 8 more breakers than I originally thought. In the power center, directly right of the 3 main breakers, there are a whole slew of breakers... It was tripped. -I'm an idiot. I never knew that the power center had a door that opened... I've probably looked at it a dozen times....

Been there, done that. Just didn't put it in print before figuring it out. You learned a big one and you came to friends while you worked through it. Its all good, nothing burned or is sitting broken on the side of the road.

Have you had a transfer switch go bad, yet? That was a big one. Had to learn where it was and then figure out what it did.

Do this stuff long enough and you learn stuff you don't even know the questions to ask, yet.

Glad it all worked out and you'll not get caught on that one, again. Well sometimes I forget to remember, your results may vary.

In all honesty, I thought I had remembered someone saying something about another GFCI outlet on that string but couldn't turn up the conversation. With vBulletin's search being what it is, I was confident someone would chime in with where it was before I was able to locate the thread.

*note* I put approximately 2 miles on my creeper crawling around the generator bay looking for it.

I'm thankful I finally solved a bunch of questions about how the power is routed in our coach as I was seriously worried about it only have 3 breakers...

Rgolding, the next time you're running up I-57, give me a shout. Depending on how you define S. Illinois, we're probably neighbors!

Our transfer switch went out... and CW replaced it. They told us there was a recall on it, and it would blow out both AC units. They replaced both AC's and our Transfer switch under the Jayco Warranty.
