1995 Vectra 34'.

I cannot get my receptacles to work. I have even tried the generator and the only rec. that will work is the one over the cab for the TV/VCR.

I am running my 50A cord into a household extension cord plugged into a normal household outlet. I'm stumped. I've checked breakers and everything.

Try resetting the GFI receptacle in the bathroom area.

I found the GFCI outlet to the left of the kitchen counter and reset it. Everything is working now! Thanks

TaDa!

It can be frustrating at times. GFIs need to be exercised periodically as well so don't forget to trip them every so once in a while using the "Test" button. I believe the recommendation is for 6 months.

Hi sqzdog,

Thanks for letting us know you found the problem and everything is working. DriVer is right about exercising and testing the GFI's periodically, they can be pesky devils.
