My coachmen was plugged in to the house, i unplug it for a min to use the extension cord then plug it back in and no power.... I checked all fuses and breakers. I got a new intellipower inverter last year. Do you think the inverter already went? Any thoughts? what is the voltage soppose to be the the inverter plugs into, I checked shore power and its 120. I thought it converts 120 to 12....????

Check for 120V at the plug where the convert is plugged in at. If you have volts the problem is on the 12 volt side. If you don't have volts the problem is on the 120 volt side. 120 volt side: start at the shore power and work your way to the converter. 12 volt side: if your below 12.6 volts... probably converter.

well there isnt 120 at the plug for the converter... so does this mean theres a break in the line, cause isnt it just the shore line cable into the converter, then the rest of the camper is fed off 12v? Could it be a GFIon the converter? is there a GFI in the converter?

The converter could be connected to a GFI. Reset all bathroom, kitchen GFIs in the rig. Toggle all CBs fully off then back on. Sometimes they look on when they are not.

Did you trip the breaker or a GFCI in the house?

CONVERTER (Intella power is a Converter one of the best in fact if it's a 9200 series or a 9100 with optional charge wizard) converts 120 vac to 12 vdc
INVERTER.. Goes the other way around (Inverse of converting)
Check outlet you pulg rig into. you may have tripped either a breaker or a GFCI in/on the house
Check all breakers in the rig Don't trust your eyes FEEL the breaker's lever
(I have not checked for tripped breakers by sight for 30 years)
Then we have to break out tools

Re read suggestions above to re-check the outlet at the house.
I'm guessing you popped a breaker or GFCI in the house
