Electrical Outlet Issue

Asking for help with an electrical issue. We have a 2001 Monaco Dynasty 40 foot diesel. Last night I plugged in the vacuum cleaner and thought I tripped a breaker. But breaker did not trip. We have only enough power at the 2 vanity outlets and 2 passenger side outlets in the bedroom to power a small digital alarm clock. If we plug anything else in, power to all 4 of the outlets is lost. When we unplug the extra item, clock comes back on. The 4 effected plugs are reading 105 on meter.
Thank you.
All other outlets in the coach are working. The only ones effected are the 2 at vanity and the 2 on the passenger side in the bedroom.

You could have a loose wire on the one that effects the others. Take it out and see.

Check your incoming power supply. Every time we've had a power problem its been due to low voltage at the shore connection. RWeigant mentioned a loose wire. The RV outlets that were installed in these rigs are really pieces of sh#% and that could very well the the source of the problem.

Two options come to mind. Bad GFI, they do go bad. Check the two breakers on the inverter. The strange thing is partial power?

Bad/loose neutral or hot wire connections will give you that exact problem.
Check the connections on receptacles ,circuit breaker panel,etc.
