   Something else to check inside the pod, for any future problem, is the GFCI outlet.  Several things, including the fridge, are usually on that same circuit.

	I guess the next question is 'WHAT TRIPPED THE BREAKER"? Is the trailer plugged in to a 15 amp circuit? That may not be enough if you had everything on. I think the reason the lights were working is that they switched to battery when the breaker tripped.

	Some breakers, esp the little skinny ones, are hard to see when it is tripped. And one has to flip the breaker completely off before resetting it.

	Hello. I did a quick 'search' for this but only got confused, unfortunately I am ignorant about electricity. - In preparation for a trip across country, I decided to bake a pie. I am on house electricity. I had a heater hooked up to warm the rpod. Now, it looks like a breaker flipped. The heater is now inoperable, the oven is warm but quit 'preheating' and is now inoperable, and the refrigerator, which was switched 'off' when I started cooking, when I put it on to see if it was operable now just blinks and alarms. The tv seems to be inoperable altho the little red light for the antenna is working. No breakers have flipped that I can see in the rpod, including the gfci on the outlet. My house breakers look ok except the gfci breaker had tripped and I flipped it back, no change resulted that I can see. I checked the electrical cord house connection and it seems fine. On searching previous topics, it seems the refrig, oven and maybe tv should be on separate circuits, and why can I not find a flipped breaker? The rpod lights, radio, etc seem to be working fine. Of course, I have probably made some stupid beginners mistake so any help is very much appreciated. * Since writing this, I went out and disconnected the battery and now have no electricity. * CANCEL THE EMERGENCY - My wife came home and told me you have to REALLY flip the house circuit breaker, she did and now we are back, sorta, to normal.
