OK, when you say "no power" do you have lights?

Is all power gone or do you have AC (like air conditioning, microwave) or DC (like lighting and radio).

Which begs an answer of where you plugged into is there power there ?

Your 120VAC to 12VDC converter is not working:
Reasons:

1) Your CONV breaker may be tripped in the power panel.

2) Your converter may be bad and not providing charging power

3) Because your converter is not working your battery is dead due to not being charged.

Yes. ONE of your 15 amp AC breakers powers your converter. It may be tripped.
Turn it off; then back on to reset it. It may have CONV on the legend.

Your converter (makes DC for Bus) will be powered by 115 VAC circuit breaker. Its output is often protected by fuses at or close by the converter DC output. Still puzzeled by Microwave not working unless its broke also!

Have you checked the GFI Outlet?

[jeffro77]

yes sir i checked that i learned a lesson in my home after calling an electrian out wont forget it after paying the bill for him to push the button

[Herk7769]

Sounds like the breaker in the power center (that powers the converter and the string of outlets your TV is on) is tripped.

Heres a photo of Buss fuses on rear of Parallax converter. Unit is sole occupant of a 20 amp breaker. Converter is rated 65 amp. Either fuse or breaker will shutdown DC
