Are you able to do some electrical trouble shooting? Do you have a basic ac voltmeter? If not, try and find a small lamp. Plug it into a known good outlet and make sure it comes on. We can use this for some basic troubleshooting.
The test process I would sugest is to systematically test all the outlets and all the breakers in the RV. As you do so, you might want to consider labeling your outlets so you will know in the future what breaker feeds what outlet.
OK, let's start at your ac breaker panel. If you have 50 amp service in your MH then we will ignore for now the first four breakers (20A, 50A, 50A, and 20A on the left hand side) If your MH is wired for 30 amp service we will ignore the first three breakers (20A, 30A, and 20A).
The next breaker to the right (15A) feeds the load shedder. Assuming the load shedder has not disabled any loads, this breaker ultimately feeds the refrigerator and the converter. So test this by plugging in your lamp into the refirgerator outlet. Make sure it is on and then turn this breaker off to verify the lamp goes off. If all is well the turn the breaker back on and plug the refrigerator back in if you removed it.
The next breaker to the right (15A) feeds the microwave. So, verify that the microwave comes on. Turn off the breaker and make sure the microwave goes off and then turn the breaker back on.
OK, the next breaker to the right (15A) feeds many outlets with GFI's. I am guessing your problem will be found here. Because of the GFI, you will need to test these in the following order:
1. Hallway (if this outlet doesn't work, reset the GFI)
2. The outlet in the lavatory
3. External entertainment center
4. Exterior (??)
5. Toilet
6. Computer Desk
7. Table/computer
The next breaker to the right (15A) feeds:
1. the outlet for the charger,
2. GFI outlet in the galley (if this outlet doesn't work, reset the GFI)
3. Another outlet in the galley area
The next breaker to the right (15A) feeds:
1. An outlet near the front TV for the inverter
2. An outlet for the front of the bed
3. An outlet for the air matress
4. An outlet for the rear of the bed
The next two breakers (both 20A) are for the Washer/Dryer and the Hotwater Heater (through the load shedder).
Hopefully this will help you find the problem (at least you can get all your outlets labeled!)
Good luck
