No power in Livingroom 37fll

I have a ‘22 Sabre 37fll and last night while my kids where watching tv everything in the livingroom turned off. The weird thing is that it only happened in the livingroom everywhere else like the kitchen, bathroom, and rooms there is power! I reset all the circuit breakers, checked all the fuses, and the gfci, and even checked the batteries and all are good! I am plugged into 50amp installed in my home and it’s still isn’t working! Can anyone please help me out?

Do you have someone who can test your house connection and make certain you've got both 'legs' of that 50 amp connections working?

If you've made certain that you don't have a GFCI tripped and you've checked for fuses blown, you might want to give your dealer a call since the unit is new and under warranty.

Please let us know when you find the cause, and how you fixed it.

Might happen to others one day.

Was this ever resolved? It just happened to us yesterday with ours. USBs and all other outlets work fine but TV will not power on and outlets that power the recliners do not work. Trying to find a wiring diagram do diagnose myself.


Thanks for any help to a new fancy RV owner.

Honestly I had to take it in! They said the wiring was faulty and had to rewire the whole trailer!

If the outlets in the kitchen, bath, and bedroom worked, I wouldn't say the wiring was faulty., Now, in reality, one of the outlets may have had a connection failure. Since those are most likely daisy-chained from one to the other, a failure at the first one will then give an indication as to the failure of all those downstream.

As a rule, fuses are only used on 12V DC circuits. Circuit breakers on 120V AC circuits.

Rewire the entire trailer?????? That is a BS answer in my opinion. Hope it was 100% under warranty.

Not what I wanted to hear as we just had it delivered yesterday and are living in it full time as we just moved from Washington State to North Carolina.

Does the outlet at the stove have a "GFI Protected" label? If so, there is another GFI that is wired to that one. That one has the RESET button. Usually in the bath area.

Wrong thread for it, but welcome to the Forum and welcome to North Carolina.

OK!!! I found what caused my issue. It seems all the nose outlets and kitchen outlets minus fridge are daisy chained together to the Bathroom GFCI outlet that has the reset on it. I reset that and everything works now. Not sure what caused the spike to trip it as we only had the TV and recliners plugged in at the time.

I think all my outlets are on the same circuit except the microwave and the one in the bedroom closet for the washer/dryer.
I have never had this issue but I would also recommend checking the ground fault outlets. Let us know what you find out.
