GFI Locations

I have lost power in the rear of my rig, at least those outlets that operate the entertainment center in the bedroom. The only GFI I can find is in the bathroom, and it is OK. Is there another GFI in my unit as I cannot find one. I've checked under the sink and in the entertainment cabinet. Help please.


BTW, I've checked the breakers and they are OK.

We only have one GFCI in our Allegro Bay. Outlets in potentially wet locations like the kitchen, the washer/dryer closet and in the outside storage bay are all daisy-chained off that one outlet.

Breakers may look OK, but did you physically turn them off and back on to reset them?

Do you have an Inverter? If so, it likely powers the BR entertainment center. Check for a tripped breaker on the inverter.

If the GFCI is OK, if the breakers are all OK, and if you don't have an inverter, I would next look for a loose wire behind the breaker panel.

After several calls to Tiffin it was determined that I had a bad molex connector under the hamper drawer that needed replacing. Had to have a mobile RV Tech over to find it and replace it this morning. Now I hope Tiffin will honor my warranty claim and reimburse me for the service.


Thanks for all the advice.
