Help with outlets

The power went out today in the seasonal site I am parked in. I ran my trailer off a generator for a few hours. After the power came back on I switched everything back over. My microwave and outlets are not working. I have a 2018 333BHOK. Adise PLEASE

K.I.S.S.!!!!

Check your GFCI's. Usually found in bathrooms, kitchens, or a GFCI breaker in your distribution panel.
Then go from there.

Reset all breakers in the power center. They don’t always look like they have tripped.

GFI will not reset. Still looking for the issue.

The microwave is not gfi protected. If it does not want to work, you may have a broader issue. Does the AC units work? Start with the outside shore power post. Turn the breaker off than on.

Also try resetting each breaker in the RV.

Also try disconnecting every device that is plugged in, then try the GFI

Goodluck

GFCI's do go bad so don't rule it out.
Un plug micro, try to reset. Maybe micro kicked the bucket? Anything else plugged in? Unplug.
Working maintenance at a high school 99% of the time when a girl wouldn't reset it was a bad gfi.

1. Does anything 120 volt work?
2. What happens if you turn generator back on? Does everything work then?
3. Do you have 30 amp or 50 amp service?

If you have 50 amp service and only some of the 120 volt system is not working, one leg may be open. Try resetting all breakers in the pedestal.

If nothing 120 volt works when on shore power but works with the generator, they didn't fix their problem. A voltmeter would be able to tell you a lot.

Thank You. I reset the pedestal breaker and it worked. You saved me tons of aggravation. Happy to buy you a beer anytime.
