Dead Outlets—What's Happening?

We are the original owners of a 2018 5.0 TA. The outlets for our microwave and below and to the right of the sink are dead. When we started our 10 day trip everything was working just fine. I squashed my 75 year old body into the space between the bench and the table. I couldn't see labels clearly while lying on the floor, but I turned each breaker on and off. No change, so I did it again. Those 2 outlets were still dead. Any idea of what's happening and how I can fix it.
Thanks in advance.

Have you checked and reset your GFCI outlet? Its either the outside outlet, or the bathroom outlet. If your outside outlet it dead, the GFCI tripped is almost for certain the problem.

If you have an inverter, there is a transfer switch under the bench behind the power center with a couple of breakers. Check those. In my trailer it's the grey box at the back of the bench.
