RV Repair: Electrical, gfci outlet, 5th wheel


Question
I have a 2001 25' Fleetwood 5th Wheel.  I must have overloaded the AC circuit breaker, because none of the elecrical outlets, inside or out have any power.  I have reset the breakers and checked the power cord.  All the appliances have power.

I thought that perhaps the GFCI outlet had tripped and tried testing it.  The test button would not stay in as it is suppose to, so I replaced the outlet.  The new outlets test button will not stay in either.

Can you offer any help?

Thanks.

Answer
Marc,
    You say that all the appliances have power so I am assuming you are referring to the a/c microwave, and frig.  If this is the case and none of your outlets are working I would have looked at the GFCI first as well.  Since that wasn't the culprit I would check to see if you are getting power out of the AC breaker in the breaker box that supplies that circuit.  It could have failed internally.  If you are getting power out of it and not to the first receptacle in the circuit it may be a break in the wiring.  I can't think of anything else to tell you to check.  I hope this helps and good luck.
