Power Cord will NOT power out!!!!!!
We just got to camp with our new-to-us Monaco and the "Power" power cord will NOT come out under power - the power Cord Extraction (in - out) Switch[/B] !!!!!!!!! AARRRRRRRRGGGGG!
I've read the Owner's Manual. Nothing points to a fuse or a circuit breaker for this power cord. Plus, I've check them all.
I've tried to "pull it out" - the cord that is. But it will not budge!!! AAARRRRRRGGGGGGG!!! It will simple NOT budge!!!!
Since we're in a Camp Ground, we cannot run the generator at all!!!! Their rules.
Any positive suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Try bumping the retract, it is possible it is in a bind. If that fails purchase a 30 or 50 amp extension to get you thru till you can get repaired. The extension will come in handy we use ours a lot.

"Try bumping the retract..." Please explain. Do you mean "gently hit it with a hammer?"

There may be a fuse in the bedroom closet or where ever your 12vdc house fuses are. If not there, there should be a fuse or circuit breaker in either the rear run box to the right in the engine bay or the front run box in the compartment under the driver's window.

Good time for an extension cord and adapters for sure. Most folks carry them don't be shy to explain your situation and ask a neighbor.
FUSE I believe is in the rear run box right hand side in the engine compartment. Big square box with a flat cover, mounted vertically.
Keep us posted

"There may be a fuse in the bedroom closet." Yep. There are two panels in the bedroom. Earlier, one seemed to be tripped so I shut it off and then back on. No luck. I'm going to shut off every one and reset.
"front run box in the compartment under the driver's window." There is an enormous one there!!! Everything is labeled. But nothing with relating to or labeled at anything even close to Shore Power Cord Switch.

The one you reset is a 120 vac breaker, I would think you are looking for a DC fuse for the electric reel.........Most likely in a fuse box in one of the location's suggested........

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is market "15A 14V" and stamped front the Dominican Republic.
But I can't tell if it is blown. But since it controls "both reels" - water and electric - and the water real works, the fuse must be OK.
I took it out and put it back in. Water reel works, power cord doesn't.
The picture I posted doesn't show here.
With the time slipping away, I'm going to my local and friendly Home Depot for a 50 AMP and 30 AMP extension cord. That will give me power and time.
