I need help on a problem with power on my 1992 Sea Ray Sundancer 300 no power to the stove or refrigerator I have looked over the basics and cannot find anything appreciate your help
 
Did you check power before and after your circuitbreaker?
Are they both on the same circuitbreaker?
 
The funny thing is circuit breakers are not marked fo fridge or stove, I'm not quite sure why sea ray did it that way. Everything is factory built no mods have been done.

Post a picture of your electrical panel in the cabin and of the breaker panel in the cockpit or bilge and we can help a lot more.

Also, can you list the things you've already checked? One person's "basics" can be quite different from another's.

Do all of your AC outlets work?

Yes I metered one topside, one head outlet although I dont have any power to the exhaust fan in the head, and one galley outlet.
 
Ground Faults tripped? Not sure about 92 300, but I have 2 in my 340. Check power coming in on each shore power line. (Not sure if you have 1 or 2). Check both sides of breakers at shore power inlets, turn them on and off to see if they are operating properly and then move to power panel and do same for all the breakers in there. If all of your breakers have power in and power out when turned on, then your issue is a ground fault tripped or a bad connection/outlet. My first thought is ground fault tripped or has gone bad. Also - does fridge run on the 12v side and not the shore power side or not at all?

Fan in head is 12v and outlets are 120v. Two different systems, two different problems.
 
Where are your ground faults located on your 340?
 
Also are the GCFI outlets the same as household outlets?
 
Usually one hidden in the head. Mine is in the vanity cabinet up in right top corner. Also I have one in cockpit under sink. Those GFI outlets control others on the boat as well. Mine are in a loop. If one goes, I lose all power at all outlets. Yes, they look just like a h oh household one with a reset button.

Open up the electric panel and start measuring with a volt meter all breakers on and off position in- and output.
Measuring is knowing....

on the breaker panel is the fuse of the switchpanel out or in?

It is in, it is a taller reset button because it is 50 amp breaker.

I replaced the GFI today in the head in which is also in the vanity. No change on power to the fridge and stove though still dead.

OK, well the stove is clearly labelled there and it's flipped to "off". Sometimes, the fridge is powered via the "outlets" breaker. Are you sure you have the fridge turned on (inside the fridge)?

Start with the two breakers - check for voltage on both sides.

Does the fridge work when on 12V power?
