THOR #1978
2016 Thor ACE 29.2

We have two electrical outlets not working in our Coach. Located on the driver's side. One under the dining table and one under the cabinets, just above the sink. Both are on a GFCI circuit. The outside outlet is on a GFCI circuit and does work along with the outlet in the bathroom, which is a GFCI outlet. It works, therefore it has not tripped. The GFCI outlet in the bathroom is the only GFCI outlet I have been able to find.

Is there another one hidden somewhere? Has anyone had these issues and been able to figure out how to fix them? With the exception of these two outlets, all other outlets in the coach work.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you followed these instructions http://www.thorforums.com/forums/f10...ings-5833.html to get all the drawings of your coach?

The drawing may help you trace down the # of GFCI outlets and what is connected to what. In addition you may be able to trace down the wiring.

Another thought: Turn off all power and remove the two outlets in question--its pretty easy to check for a bad connection at the outlet (once you get the diagrams you may also want to remove the outlet that is "upstream" of those two--maybe the bad connection is there).

Talking

My ACE 29.4 has four GFCI outlets. One in the bathroom, one under the table and two outside on the passenger side. All of mine quit working. I thought it was a faulty GFCI and replaced the one in the bathroom as the llight had turned red. It's normally green when they're working. That didn't solve the problem.
Camping World solved the problem.........seems the outside GFCI's, although covered as they should be, were leaking and the water was shorting the circuit. They did a sloppy job of fixing it - a big glob of sealant over the top and down one side of the box - but they work and no problems since. This summer I'll work on the big glob of goo - to make it look a little nicer!
