Onan generator works no power to Microwave or TV

I have a 2019 Winnie View with an onan 3.2hdzaa6508c generator. The generator works fine but no power to the microwave or tv. I pressed the reset button on the generator (wasn't tripped). Checked the breakers, none tripped. Not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions?

Has it worked in the past? Do any 120 VAC devices work when the generator is running? Do they work on shore power? If no to the second question, then you may have an ATS issue.

Do those devices work of the inverter? Do you have any other devices that work off the inverter?

My thought is your inverter circuit breaker is tripped, if not that them maybe one of your main breakers(assuming 50 amps which has 2 legs).

Take an inventory of exactly what works and what doesn’t. AC units, electrical outlets. And all other 120v circuits. This may give you some insight.

has anything ever worked off the generator? do you have an automatic transfer switch or must you plug your shore power cable into the generator output receptacle?

Onan generator works no power to Microwave or TV

Thanks for the replies. I tested everything except the Power Plug that should have been plugged in to the generator outlet. A DUH! moment. I recently downsized from a large coach that had a transfer switch. Everything works! Thanks again.
