Receptacle issues

[Mr Clean]

I have a Cougar 326 MKS & half of my trailers recepticals are not working. New development. Checked all breakers, fuses, everything that is tied into the GFI is working. Shut the main off to reset system & still don’t have electric to the bedroom or next to the couch or dinette.
Not sure where else to start looking. Any suggestions would be awesome?

If you've actively reset the GFCI outlet (or maybe 2?) by pushing the TEST button and observing the reset button pop out, then pushing the reset button back in and ensuring it stays engaged, then I suspect a loose connector in an outlet. If the ones that are inop are all on the same side and you do have a working outlet on that same side, the next outlet downstream from the breaker box is the suspect, in my opinion. Remove the first INOP outlet and inspect for a solid stab connector on that outlet. Also examine for breaks, burns, etc. If that outlet looks good, I would then go upstream and remove the last remaining WORKING outlet and also examine the wires there.

Sounds like a bad GFCI plug.

I lean toward a bad gfi receptacle OR a 2nd one. On another thought train; have you checked all of your AC appliances? Do they ALL work? My thought was loss of one of the legs on a 50A feed. Do you have an EMS and does it show 120vac on each leg? I am assuming you have 50A on the 326MKS.

First off what are you plugged into? a 50 amp, 30 amp, or 15 amp outlet ? Secondly, what have you tried if anything other than the outlets?

Reset all breakers. Turn each one off then back on one at a time. Use a volt meter and verify 120 volts at each breaker. Tell us exactly which outlets do not work.
