Inverter problems
We have a 2020 Montana 3121RL 5ver. I unplugged the inverter the last time I parked the rig and now it will not turn on. I've unplugged it again and then plugged it back in and hit the switch and nothing! What should I be looking at or for?

When you say you unplugged the inverter, how did you unplug it? Mine (2022 3121RL) is hard wired through a disconnect switch. Are you referring to the outside 50 amp plug coming from shore power? If you send more details, we can help.

Hi Larry,
I had the same problem on a trip last October. I unplugged the load from the inverter, and then turned off the red disconnect which is located in the battery compartment. Left it off a few minutes, toggled the disconnect back on, and voila, the inverter powered up. I'm not sure if it was needing a disconnect "reboot", or if it was seeing something wrong on the load side. Turned it off, plugged back in the load, switched on and all worked as expected.
Good Luck!

Inverter problem
Had the same problem with mine after battery ran down. My inverter had a reset button on the side.

How did you fix your issue? We had a power outage on our Montana 5th wheel, 2022. The refrigerator worked off the inverter like it should but when the power came back on the fridge didn't work again. We flipped every breaker but the main. I didn't touch the inverter. Should I have?

Inverter fix
Where you plug the cord in is a gfi breaker type plug. I had to reset the plug after my battery ran down after a storm. Just push the reset between in two plugs if it has been tripped. You have 2 places you an push 1 is the reset and the other is a test to make sure the gfi is working. Hope this helps you.
