Check your inverter box in the bay where all the fuses and power are. It may have two breaker like flip switches and one of them may have tripped. Also, if you're running off 30 amp and your MH is 50 amp check where your 50 amp male plugs into the 30 amp pigtail. One of the 50 amp blades might not be in between the pigtail connectors. This happened to me once, if one of your 50 amp blades goes between the pigtail 30 amp slot and the rubber it won't pass on all the power.

Check your GFI plugs, one of them may have tripped.

CHeck your shore power plug. I have a 2005 Dolphin that uses 50Amps and when one side of the plug isn't making good contact, half my 120v circuits are dead.

X2 on the GFI outlet. There is often one GFI outlet that has others downstream daisy chained to it. There is a tiny push button and LED on the GFI outlet. Find which one it is and push the little button in.

Why anyone would put the micro and fridge on the GFCI I do not know, not needed for those devices. Good frame ground is better.. But alas they do.

Likewise the televisions.

However, the first respondent mentioned an inverter... MANY coaches have inverters so you can watch TV specifically TV even without shore or generator power.

Now a good inverter will offer power pass through.. Much like my Prosine 2.0, It may also contain the converter to charge the batteries (like the Prosine) or not, In this case it will contain a transfer switch as well,, MANY of these have circuit breakers which are always "Live" (they are in the output line) and if they trip you loose all your televisions and radios save for the dash.. Which is exctly what happened to you.

In addition there will be a circuit breaker,, If you have an inverter there will be TWO circuit breakers, one on the main, one on the sub panel. The sub panel may be part of the MAIN (Progressive Dynamics used to make one like that) or elsewhere (mine is in a bathroom, main is in the hall)
