Main TV Electrical Circuit

Bayway · 05-16-2008, 06:21 PM

I just changed from Direct TV receiver to Dish and have lost all power to the front of the overhead area where the TV and all components are located. I reset the GFCI and the main breakers no power. Anyone have any suggestions?
I plugged the Dish box and the Dome into and extension cord they both work. Can't figure this one out. Everything worked 2 weeks ago.

Do you check GFI on front of the front of the inverter?

Did not check front GFI but will in the A.M. Thanks for the reply. Hope that's the problem.

Checked breaker in inverter that fixed the problem on the right side which runs the TV. Still no power on the left side for the dish. Must have a loose connection some where. Going to tackle that next week. Thanks Guys.

Just to let everyone know the dead circuit is still dead. I just plugged into the same box as the TV and Inverter with a 14 gage ext cord and went over the TV and to the left side and now have power for the dish box. May not be the best answer but it works. Removing the TV cover was not as hard as I expected.

Have you checked your wiring diagrams? If you don't have them you can download them here http://www.winnebagoind.com/html/resources/manuals.html .
Depending on your setup you could have a 300watt inverter powering the outlet that is dead.

I checked the wiring diagram first, looks to me like the right and left come off the same circuit. I must have a loose connection some where but can't find it. The inverter does power up the circuit on the right so I am OK for dry camping and TV power if I want.
