Help... No dc power to inverter

2014 378 GT. Inverter off, no lights gfi popped, can't reset. Tested no dc power to inverter. Inside 15 amp fuse 2nd down from top marked refridge ok. Fridge works fine with generator and/or pedestal. Power flows thru inverter. Had to run Genny for 6 hour drive yesterday. Any suggestions how to trace back? Thanks.

Have you checked the 100 - 200 amp DC fuse from the batteries going to the inverter? It is located next to the batteries under the steps.

On my 378 there are 2 fuses. One for the inverter and another for the hydraulic pump.

Help... No dc power to inverter

Those are not it. Actually they are lever type fuse. Mine are located to the left of the batteries and attached to the chassis frame. Look up "100 amp DC fuse" on Amazon. It will show a picture of one. If the lever is sticking out the side of it, it means it has tripped. Just push it back in.

Yes. It was popped. Reset now I record 13.2 to the inverter. But gfi on inverter will not reset. No lights in inverter. I deduct it is the inverter itself again. Replaced in 16, then again last year. Will call Xantrex in the morning. Problem I am one night here, then there for most of the rest of the summer..... no place to ship to me.....

I assume you are trying to resetting the gfci plug after resetting the DC breaker. Still a bummer. Good luck.

If your comfortable with replacing a 120 volt outlet you can take the inverter apart and replace the gfci with a standard 20 amp outlet. I did that with mine a few months ago and it now works perfect. Gfci outlets have a very high failure rate. Replacing the outlet cost less $10
