Loss of power to outlets

I have a 2013 Voltage 3905. I was running the generator today and had power to all outlets. I started vacuuming and the power went out in the outlet I was using. Sounds like a breaker or GFI right? Turns out, all but 3 outlets in the unit are not working. The GFI and the two outlets on the island are working. None of the others work. The GFI, breakers and all fuses (that I could find) have been checked and seem to be fine. I went all through the unit thinking there might be another GFI somewhere with no luck. Any suggestions?

Check the two breakers that are on the generator itself.

Rusty,
Thanks for the tip. It worked! I just moved up from tent camping and tried everything I knew. Seemed like it had to be a breaker but completely missed that there would be breakers on the gen.
Thanks again,
Dan

Hi
I had this same unit . There're a total of 8 GFI in my unit .
1 master bath
2 in kitchen island
1 washer/dryer hook up
2 by ramp door (inside the toy hauler )
1 outside the front door
1 inside the water hook up
This happened to us as well. What it was the GFI. In the master bath had a dim green light on . So I checked it with my meter and it showed 70volts . So I replaced it and problem solve. So if you have a meter check all the GFI to see witch one is not giving you 120volts after you reset it . Hope this helps.
John
