The outlets downstream from the GFCI are all dead. I've replaced the GFCI, and the circuit breaker for this circuit wasn't tripped (I reset it a few times anyway). Also, the new GFCI has an LED that shows either red or green -- it's showing green! But there's no power available from it either.

Any thoughts?
 
If the GFCI is lit the breaker is good and "Set"

Now make sure the GFCI is properly wired and there is 120vac on teh "LOAD" lines

Then you are going to have to inspect each outlet.. Start with the one that is "logically" closest to the GFCI.. You might get lucky and stop there. but Logic often has little to do with motor homes.
 
Since the GFCI indicator is green, it has power and has not tripped. The problem is after the GFCI, probably a loose wire. Either that or there is another GFCI downstream from the one you changed and it is tripped or failed. Start tracing the wires from that GFCI box.
 
Thanks for your suggestions. Tracing the wires will be the next thing I do. Hate the thought of that since they run along behind the cabinetry, sink, and stove of the RV. But the GFCI does show green, and there is power to the line side. So the wires are about all that's left!
