Electrical outlet and microwave power

We have a 2021 21NE and the electrical outlet by the entrance door has no power and the microwave also has no power. The outlet has a GFCI tag on it and my thought was that it had tripped. However, there is no reset button to push. Any thoughts where a reset for the circuit might be? None of the breakers or fuses look like they are tripped.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

on most trailers, including my 21C, the kitchen area outlets are slaved to the outdoor outlet, which has the actual GFCI in it. Mine often trips in wet weather, and has to be reset to use the kitchen outlet.

Glad that worked for you.

It's time for you to change your profile information to 2021 21NE. It currently says "Trailer: NA (yet)".

You're not alone, it's tricked many others.
