Okay, maybe a quick one for someone - have only owned the Dolphin for a month and still fixing things. There is no AC on the AC outlet in the basement in the compartment left of the stairs. There are no breakers tripped, there is no power at this outlet whether on shorepower or generator. Is there a switch somewhere? maybe a GFI ?

Look for and reset your gfci receptacles. The one that is not working is by virtue of being outside a gfci recept. It may be "daisy chained" from another gfci location.

Didn't even know I had an outlet there... thanks for that! Still no power on that basement outlet though, time to start chasing wires I guess.

It looks like the power for the basement outlet comes from the outlet under the pop up shelf. Have you popped and reset the GFI under the shelf?

BINGO! that was the culprit, the GFI under the pup up shelf! Havent had this motorhome long and have never flipped the shelf up - the GFI was tripped, I now have power in the basement. Simple fix but you saved me alot of needless trouble-shooting. Thanks!
