Sounds like you tried to run a heater (no matter how small) from the standard 300w inverter that mid-2000s Winnebago Class A's came with standard.

A big no-no. Any heating device will draw huge amounts of watts from an electric source and a small inverter is just not equipped to handle that kind of wattage.

Hopefully, you just need to find the inverter on your RV and push a simple reset button and you could be good to go.

I did a bit of looking on this drawing and snipped out what I see as the path for the inverter and those outlets, in thinking that you "may" need to check back along the path to see where it is not feeding power.
From this drawing:
https://www.winnebago.com/Files/File...ire_153555.pdf

I'm not sure I agree with the way the drawing shows as it seems to leave the path open back to the load center and I " think" there should be a connection shown where I placed a question mark, but it may help to be able to walk back along the route to see where things are open or if the breaker is tripped it may help find which to look at for tripped?

Click this drawing to bring it up for better view.
Good luck on the bug hunt!!

This info is in your Operator’s Manual. If you don’t have that here is a link to a PDF version of it:

https://www.winnebago.com/Files/File...6JourneySE.pdf

The TV inverter is detailed in the Entertainment section. Here’s a screenshot of that page in the manual:

Actually the parts list does indicate a label but that may have been removed by now.
