Just opened my 2018 Forest river wildcat 5the wheel and my microwave and fireplace are not working. Need help!

Both are 120 vac....have you checked your circuit breakers? Do your other 120 vac items work....like the A/C, outlets, TV etc. ???
 
Checked circuit breakers and nothing is tripped. I didn't try the a/c but everything else seems to be working.
 
breaker can appear to be NOT tripped when they are tripped...
best to cycle the breaker all the way off/on

Plus use a multi meter to confirm 120v is on the breaker input Bar ... and output wire
 
From what I've read, there's a rocker switch for the fireplace/microwave so you don't use them at the same time.
 
My fireplace and microwave have no power. I have a 2018 Forest River 35WB 5th wheel. I have reset the GFI and nothing is happening.
 
Have you checked the main circuit box it has re settable breakers for Mic and fireplace. Later RJD
 
Are you plugged into power?
If so is anything 120 working?
Is the pedestal circuit breaker on?
To trouble shoot this start at the pedestal and work toward the camper. You will need a multimeter and the know how to use it.
Let us know when you find the problem.

I have learned from other post that on many models the microwave and fire place share a beaker in the power center. Turn it all the way off and back on.

Just a thought
