USB charger issues

I have a Keystone Model 2020. I have a charging outlet by the oven that is just two USB ports. They no longer work after 6 months. I have checked all fuses and all is fine with those. How could I test these or replace if necessary?

I had the USB charger station go bad in my Passport last spring. Mine smelled like burnt plastic. I ordered this from Amazon

Easy swap and works well. even good for a nite light.

I just add these if I need a USB charging port. Easy and gives you a few extra outlets too! If it goes bad you just unplug it and get a new one.

I'm thinking GFCI issue due to the proximity to the stove but if all other outlets are working, kindly disregard the SWAG question: Is/are there any other electrical outlets that are not working?

On our 2018 Sprinter the outlet by the stove as well as the ones by the kitchen sink are on the GCFI circuit.

Personally I’d remove the USB built in wall charger and rewire with conventional outlet. The charger is a constant draw on the battery. I’d just get a nice 5 outlet USB charger and go that route. That’s what we do and have 12 foot long USB cables to charge while being able to sit and use devices

Do the built-in USB ports get power from DC or AC?
