Electrical Gremlins

John, take the ends off your shore power plug and check for corrosion
or burned wires. You may have lost a leg. Thank Jesus that it wasn't
the neutral leg!!! I cut the wire back about 5 inches and re-connected
the ends a few years ago. Mine were pretty crispy after 20 years of
low voltage and moisture at various camps. You might also check the
main breakers too, but my money is on the cord ends having "issues"
