2005 3670RL electrical issue
I lost power to my AC, slide outs, refrigerator and washing machine/dryer.
I was in the camper with all the slides out and i heard a "POP", which sounded like it came from under the steps to the bedroom. all the breakers in the bedroom are on and have power coming in/ out. i have not been able to locate the converter, would a bad converter keep these accessories from coming on? any help is appreciated.
George.

George,
Welcome to the forum!
The converter supplies 12v power and charges your batteries. Sounds like you have a 110v ac problem. You could have a power problem from the pedistal or have lost one side of your 50 amp service. Would also check the connections at the circuit breaker panel.

Thanks, where is the pedestal? I have the correct voltage at the cord coming in and I have 120 at all breakers. How would I determine if I lost a leg?

George,
The pedestal is where your cable is connected to the park. Assuming you have 50 amp service it is actually two 50 amp legs. If some of your ac equipment is still working but others are not - you may only have power to one leg. If you pull the main circuit breaker box out you can check that your connections are all tight - remove power before doing so. If you have an EMS system it also may have tripped. If you are not familiar with 110 ac systems, I would recommend a mobile tech to help.
