If you haven't already, manually flip all breakers to the off position, then return them to on and keep your fingers crossed.

No joy. Reset breakers. Could this be a blown inverter?

Your use switch doesn't need to be on when connected to 30 amp. My bet is you have a tripped breaker because of the source. If you have a surge protecter, use it, and make sure it trips when you test it.
But first, an obvious question... Is the source 30 amp on?
Recycle the breakers at the source, and in the AS.

That would be a converter... AC-> DC
With external off, do you have DC when the use switch is on?
I sent a PM with my cell if you want to talk.

Does the microwave, TV or air conditioner work?
These are separate from the battery/convertor circuits and will confirm you have 120 volts into the trailer.

Breaker on the post you are plugged into?
Some folks always turn the breakers off at the post when unplugging their shoreline.

Transfer switch problem? You have 2 elec inlets on the trailer - have you tried both? If not suggest you do so. The transfer switch problem has been covered in a number of other threads which you should be able to find with a search.

Agree that it has all of the symptoms of a transfer switch problem. Your LED on the cord will be on but you will not have power to the breakers and converter.

Genius award to transfer issue!
Didn't have enough reach to try the 30 amp so put on the 110 connector and hooked to front plug-in and immediate power inside.

Good call.
My '09 just has one, and I always miss that.
Glad it is working. That is a known issue, and warranty will cover it.
Regards,
JD

Cool beans and good news!!! You might consider picking up a 25 foot, 30 amp extension. Mine has come in handy a time or two.
I agree, genius award to AL - KG4U.
Are you getting DC to the batteries now, so that the jack is working???

Make sure you see the transfer switch replacement. There apparently have been several failing. In one guys AS repair to main wiring was needed.

No sooner did I step in the house, the front 110 plug apparently blew (blue LED light on front plug-in was out). Decided to try the rear again. Plugged the rear into the 30 amp and A/C is working etc.
Seems pretty finicky. The electrician who installed the 30 amp is coming tomorrow and will see if he's got an idea?
