All outlets work fine on shore power or when the generator is running.

gma -- You don`t have a problem -- Your coach was wired that way from the factory, & so was our`s, which is a 07, 42' Camelot like your`s -- As stated in my previous post, to power those outlets, look in the bay forward of the wet bay,& on the ceiling you will see a metal junction box -- In that box you will find many wires, & one should be marked Bedroom -- Join that wire to the one marker slide out -- That will power the bedroom -- There`s probably other ways,but a lot more work -- Bill Willard

I've had the same problem. Most of the time its the CFI that needs to be reset. In our 07 Scepter it is situated above the top drawer on the bathroom vanity. Also it could be that one of the output fuses on the inverter needs to be reset.

Go back and read Happycarz's post, he has it right. I had an oldtimer tell me the reason they did this was electric blanket controls will die a slow death if running on a MSW inverter. Both of my signature coach's night stand outlets are hot only on shore/gen power.

I'm confused. What is the wet bay?

GMA: I had it confirmed by Monaco when I thought there was something wrong with my bedroom outlets. They purposely DO NOT energize the bedroom plugs when under power through the inverter. If someone has medical equipment (CPAP or ??) plugged in and the batteries drain during the night causing the equipment to shut off, it could have been a liability issue for Monaco. Not an issue with shore or generator power unless you run out of fuel. I do like Bill Willard's idea. I'm going to look for my junction box this weekend:0)

GMA,
Both outlets by the TV should be live on the inverter. There should be one inside the cabinet and one outside. Try plugging in a light, that works in another socket, into the TV outlets and turn on the inverter.

Happy Harry -- I assumed gma was referring to the bedside recepts, which is on a different circuit -- But as you say, Monaco`s are like snowflakes -- No two alike --

When are you getting back to the valley ? I have bunches of stuff for you do to our coach -- You could be here helping me -- But no, you`re in Q wasting time -- Bill Willard

Mr. Bill Willard, would you reread post #10? He said all outlets in the bedroom, including the TV.
You are forgiven, due to your age. I'll be by to help you. If I'm not there by Wednesday, please start without me.
