excella 110 tailgate power MIA

I just took delivery of a 92 34' excella 1000. I was hoping to use land power in the driveway to charge and run lights while we clean it up, but its not there. I have a 30amp plug on the road site, but the other one is missing. Im going by the manual, there should be a 110 plug there right?

Im putting in a 30amp 120 camper plug this week (thanks amazon) so we can test the AC. But would really like to be able to use shore power.

If this is missing, has anyone ever replaced theirs? I could still use a 30am plug converter but wanted to make it easier for my wife.

thanks in advance

There is just the one inlet on older trailers, 30A 120V. All you need is an adapter for light loads like fans, lights, battery charging, etc. The adapter will plug into your 15A socket and have a female socket for the trailer's 30A plug. You only need a 30A outlet for the AC.

This is the sort of product I'm talking about. You don't have to go to CampingWorld or another RV place, most big Wal-Marts will have a similar product.

I ordered one of those yesterday as a backup.

reading through the manual it shows a photo someone pulling a house plug out of the back of the bumper storage, I noticed there was a hole on the inside of the enclosure as well that looked like it might have been where the 110 extension was routed. No big deal, a little less weight then. thanks
