I have a 2003 Surveyor - 29' Travel Trailer - I think there is a fuse blown somewhere. My problem is none of the electrical outlets are working. Can someone please let me know what I need to be checking? I have pulled all of the smaller amp fuses and put in one that I knew was good and that did not solve the problem. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Check your circuit breakers then check all your GFI receptacles.

Probably the GFI in the bathroom-- they usually run the power to that first and branch off that plug to the other plugs. If the bathroom GFI trips, it will kill all the other plugs.

Tyman is correct. The alternating
current circuits (115 volt) are fed
by circuit breakers, not fuses.....
And, a Ground Fault Interrupter
receptacle (GFI) may have tripped.
Look for those, maybe in the bath
or outside.....anywhere. Push the
'reset' button and all might be OK.
These receptacles often feed OTHER
receptacles.

Ditto on the GFI in the bathroom AND sometimes you when you push the trip button it feels like its working and really isn't. And you go off still searching why you have no outlets working. Really check out the GFI first.
I had to replace a few 'bad' GFI's. I like the newer ones they have now that actually have a light on them to show you whether they are working or not.
I think the GFI's get a work out when ever we plug in any 2 appliances in a MH! GFI's certainly don't like that.

Can we assume you are connected to shore power? If not, are you using a generator? Outlets only work when 120 VAC is available. They will NOT work from batteries unless a VERY fancy after market inverter is installed.
