Needless to say as I'm sure you checked your breakers, and fuses, I'm kinda new to RV's too but seems I read about checking for loose wires in the electrical panel from all the shaking and rattling, worth a look maybe. Might want to check if Microwave has power at the plugin box. Might also be convenient to post your trailer year and model.

You say it has water damage was it from leaks or was it a flood salvage. Start with the 110 volt microwave. Check for power at wall plug if you dont have a multi meter use a drop light. Then check the breakers sometimes they look fine but are tripped. Turn them off then back on. Is the GFCI tripped? Push the button to test it then reset it. Is the kitchen in a slide? If so look under the slide for a junction box. If you find one check all the connections.

If its a flood salvage you may have your hands full.

Trailer year and model are posted. Checked all fuses and breakers. By salvage it had a leak in the bunkhouse not flooded. I’ll test the power to the electrical plugs tomorrow and see what I get.

Have you run an extension cord to the microwave to determine if it's the appliance or the outlet?

Look for a second GFCI, usually connected to one of the, out of the way, wall outlets.

Look at any/all GFCI outlets .. even if they are not near your appliances. I lost power to my fridge one day.. after a bit of troubleshooting I found a kitchen GFCI outlet mounted below my overhead cabinet had tripped.. guess they wired in the fridge downstream of the kitchen GFCI.

The refrigerator usually is on a GFCI because the rear is exposed to potential water thru the vents. So that could be a possible source of no power.

Might be time to upgrade to a residential style fridge?

What brand refrigerator do you have? On some there is a fuse on the control board on the back of the refrigerator. It will be under a cover.
Depending on how you use your camper a residential refrigerator could work as long as you have a 110v hookup.

We ended up ordering a new circuit board and been working ever since.
