Rear GFCI outlets not working

I have a 2014 Voltage 3895. Noticed that my two rear outlets in the garage, rear bathroom outlet, and outlet in the kitchen behind the rear bathroom stopped working. The GFCI is not popped and the other GFCI outlets are working. Am I missing something?

Circuit breaker on the main breaker box?

If not that, I'm guessing you may have a 2nd GCFI popper somewhere on the rig.

Circuit breaker is good to go. Can't find a second GFCI anywhere.

Just because the GFCI isn't tripped doesn't mean it's working. Have you put a meter to it?
Cheap is the word in the RV world so you might try and replace it with a name band unit.

The outlets are wired in down the line. Sounds like there might be a loose connection in one down the line. I would pull the one closest to the breaker panel that isn't working and see what the wiring looks like and where it goes.

GFCI controlled outlets are always wired in series when there is a "controller" GFCI. In other words, the power comes into the outlet and then goes to the next outlet via a second set of screws on the outlets and I believe the max number of outlets on one circuit is 5. I think going to a few of the outlets and seeing if you have power (a cheap tester). You may only need to reattach a neutral but be wary, there is a definite fire potential since the neutral is also a current carrying circuit...

Good luck!
