Breaker for 120V outlet circuit in on the inverter, right next to the breaker for the microwave. It is also possible that the GFI was tripped instead,

Hi Gary, I had to reset the GFI plug on the pass side of the bed in the bedrm to get 110v working. Let me know if this worked.

In my Intrigue (#11509), I lost power to the plugs a few times and repowered them by pushing the GFI reset button on the receptacle in the bedroom. But then I once lost power and the button wouldn't do the job and it didn't feel at all like it had before. I posted on here, and got the same answer that you were provided about the breaker for the receptacles being on the inverter (as these can be powered by the inverter). I then had to find the inverter. Mine is underneath in a compartment above the batteries.

I would turn off all power, pull GFI out of box with wires connected. There should be two blacks, two whites and a ground connected to the GFI. One set of black and white is for power coming in and one set for power going out. If when you turn the power on you have 120 v on one set and not the other, your GFI is bad.

Good news, CC did install Interter with circuit protection for AC outlets in coach. I, too, tripped the breaker and after searching and call company, Xertrex and my RV Dealers, went to Buddy Gregg Motorhomes in Knoxville, TN. They found the circuit breaker and for $164. , reset it. I would recommend them to any owner as they could have taken advantage but gave honest service. While I was there I met many other CC owners who also had electrical problems. One had 12 volts only when the engine was running. Buddy Gregg had the answer for that too.
Well, owners, we need to share more information because equipment mfg, RV dealers and this group can miss lead.
