The GFI outlets each have a "Test" and "RESET" button built into the individual outlet box. They are what I was referring to to check. The circuit with the GFI oulets has a regular breaker at the power distribution panel in the RV. Sorry for the earlier Typo. Meant GFI, ot EFI.

Thanks Mark. When it comes to the electronics I feel really helpless. Found the circuit breaker on generator by accident while boondocking in Indiana one night last year. Found the fuse for slide in battery compartment this winter by searching this forum. Still looking for my slideout motor and hope I don't need to find it. You could tell me anything and I would start looking for it. A typo is a relief. Great to have so many folks to help me learn my way around.

When you reset the breaker did you just flip it back to on? A lot of times it helps to slam it on then off, nothing too rough but make sure you do it firmly, off then back on a couple of times. Sometimes when a breaker trips you can't tell by looking at it, they look like they're reset but some have to be turned off first, maybe just go through all of them and turn them off and then back on.
