Just took delivery on 2017 Forest River 377FLIK, are there 2 GFI outlets that are marked? There is one in the bathroom but my outside outlets don't work so I thought there might be another one. Help

If it is not a breaker.

My unit is not the same as yours but, just inside the entry door there is a brown switch it powers the outside outlets.

If it's not a switch like Ford suggested, there is probably more than one GFCI outlet. They can be under the awining, in the pass-thru, inside the exterior fridge access panel, kitchen, etc..

Glad you found it but it helps others if you post how you solved the issue.

The light on the Gfi was lit which made me think it was working but in our 5th wheel if the light is lit it means it was tripped

Thanks for sharing that, that's good info to have in the future.

We have a couple in the sticks & bricks that have two lights. One of them means it's ok and the other means it's tripped.
