Please help all my 120v gone!

I have a 2016 rockwood micro lite 21fbrs.. All my 120s are gone and no repair shop will take me in. I checked the fuses in the little box by the door. They seem good. I don't know what else to do...

Check the main "breaker" not fuses.

Where are you plugged in at?
Home ?
Recently installed shore power box?

Do you have a volt meter to check power coming in?

The 120v uses breakers, not fuses. Have you checked your breakers? don't have a unit like yours so can not tell you where your breaker box is located.

Don't know if this is related but I have a 322RLDS Freedom Express Liberty Edition and I have now unexpectedly lost all 120v power a couple of times.

Absolutely NO rhyme or reason to it, it just all goes out, once with just the TV on, another with the AC and other stuff running while making dinner. No breakers are tripped, no fuses blown, GFCI didn't trip, just no 120v power anywhere in the trailer. 12v however continues to work.

What I did to resolve mine was turn off all my breakers, unplug from shore power, let it sit for 15 minutes or so, reconnect shore power, and then turn on all the breakers one at a time.

Mine is headed back to the shop/dealership tomorrow to finish the warranty list from last fall and will be adding this as well as a dozen other NEW issues to the repair list.

What are you currently plugged into to get 120 volt AC power from? (house, campground, generator, etc).

Not knowing your RV expertise level, this is a good link for first timers (which you may not be by far)?

120 power gone

Since you have likely tried everything else try tripping and resetting the GFI.

Your main panel should be under your fridge to the left, check the main breaker. Check the breaker for the source you are plugged into. Ideally get a Voltmeter and verify electrical at the panel you're plugged into. check the GFCI which is likely in the bathroom.

Power out 120

Had this happen to me one time and the problem was the wires coming in to the converter was loose. I had a inverter- converter but it could be loose connection.

Agree with others here--you need to find and check your circuit breakers; not fuses. If no results there, check to make sure you actually have power where you're plugged in.
If you're at a campground, usually there are people around (either campground folks or fellow campers) who will try to help. And many campgrounds will have a tech they refer people to.

I just had a similar problem and it was the circuit breakers that tripped. I have three and I had to reset all of them. I agree with DocRob, the GFCI could also be the culprit. Since it is a 2016, I would be bringing it to the dealer to find out why this is happening. Have it fixed while it is still under warranty so that if it does reoccur after your warranty ends, you could go back to them and complain that they did not fix it properly the first time. Establish a precedence with them.

Have had this happen on my Grey Wolf when the Progressive 30amp surge protector did it's job.........and shut me down.........it was 105 degrees and I was hot. But not as hot as I'd have been if the surge blew my stuff apart!

Do you have a surge protector? If so, what are the codes?

If not, get one@!!!!!!

Where is the OP we can not help if he/she does not reply to the questions asked. This happens way too often. The person will come to the forum ask a question and never heard from again. We all can guess what is happening but until they tell us what the power source is they are on their own.

Caper more than likely a post told them how to fix the problem, their problem solved they go about their day instead of saying all is well.

Is it possible that the main cord is loose behind the box or you have a ground fault problem

I agree with check and reset the GFCI's, Check the 120 V power source and check the circuit breakers.
