One circuit is out. Can't find the breaker

The one across the bed with 2 feeds...under the rear tv.

Bingo, give that man a cegar! This is what I've been telling you. The one at the head of the bed on the outside wall is the last working outlet (#3) correct? I'm ASSUMING the wire goes across to the non-working outlet where you saw sparks. That would be the next outlet in the daisy chain. Get your camera or a mirror out and get in the wall if you can't find an issue at the receptacle. You may have a screw from the TV mount into the romex!!!!! ASSUMING it is a wall mount. Might require opening the wall behind the TV.

Turn off the breaker.

You can use some wire and an ohm meter to confirm continuity on the black or white wire from one side to the other. You'll need to cut the romex at that outlet.

Yes that is correct. I need to read up on how to use an ohm meter now. Assuming the Rolex needs replacing to that no working outlet....i am not sure how someone would get to it without cutting out the side of close or removing parts of it.

Ok, ohm meter results. With breaker turned off. Neutral to ground - I get tone. Neutral to hot, nothing and hot to ground nothing.

Is this test on the next outlet in line (at the sparks) and did you cut the romex ? (not Rolex LOL I know auto spell sucks) You need to be testing 2 blacks 2 whites and 2 grounds.

So after leaving my RV at the dealer for 3 weeks, I finally get it back. I figured I would share what they found on my electrical issue in case others run into this. They said the wire nut had came off in a junction box underneath my dinette table. There is a plywood panel under the seat cushion behind the drivers seat. Remove the panel and inside is a junction box where the circuit coming from the rear splits to the outlets in my slide out.

Good info!

But fill out yoru signature so others will know what model you have so they will know to go to that location too, should they experience a similar failure.

PS, the signature section is in the User CP at the top of the page
