Electrical outlets not working 16' Sport

We've got a new 16' sport and the 3 sets of electrical outlets are not working. All other electrical parts are working, including fridge, lights, and solar panel. Any ideas?

Thanks

Tony,

There are breakers behind the cover of the converter. The converter is located on the right side just above the floor next to the storage doors beneath the rear bunk. It has two plastic fasteners that need to be turned 90 degrees to unlock. Check the breaker first.

This may be a silly question but you are plugged into shore power right? The AC side of the trailer does not run from the batteries and even if you have a factory installed inverter that uses seperate outlets.

Ground Fault

While not certain on your unit, check the outlet that has the ground fault mechanism. This usually feeds several other outlets.
Goodluck
Bill

Has a GFCI been triggered? Sometime if ours gets triggered half the outlets on that circuit are affected. You have to turn the GFCI breaker in the panel off all the way and turn it back on to reset it.

Thumbs up Thanks

Thanks everyone for the fast and helpful replies! Bruce called it - we didn't have the trailer plugged in, so that is obviously the problem. Newbie problem I guess...
