Electrical issues

Lost power to two of my electrical outlets and have narrowed it down to these two modules. Does anyone know what these are called so I can find and order new ones

Have you contacted Forest River? On that new of a travel trailer, they should be able to help. - please let us know what they are when you find out. Might help the next guy.

How did you narrow the issue down to these modules? (I love to trouble shoot, and hope to learn some new tricks.)

What does that label on the cord say?

I would expect those modules to have a re-set.

Anytime someone starts talking about a limited loss of power, I start thinking GFCI or something along those lines. Of course, fuses/breakers are also likely culprits.

These look like a connector for a transfer switch, as on our residential fridge transfer switch. Chase the wiring to see if it goes to a small dedicated transfer switch. If it does make sure the inverter is on. Check the GFCI outlet on the bottom of the inverter to make sure it is not tripped.
Also if there is a transfer switch it could be plugged into the bottom of the inverter into that GFCI outlet. Could be just resetting the GFCI will solve your issues.

Those are Molex Self-Contained Power Connector (SCPC). They are passive connectors to allow for rome's to be disconnected for service proposes. At times they are also used to splice romex to SJO or similar cord.

Steve W - you are exactly correct , didn’t know what they were called. I traced down the power source with a non contact power meter. I had power going in to these connectors and nothing coming out. These connectors are located in behind the grey stone fireplace and one connector is the power supply for the fireplace and one is to a outlet just above that will provide power to a TV. The picture was taken around and overtop of a panel section with a phone and now I’ll remove the fireplace to access the connectors to troubleshoot them further. Just knowing what they are called to order or to question with my dealer is a high help. I’m thinking the connection of the connectors have become loose with travel I’m hoping anyways.
