I have a 1959 Crosley period. My interior lights work and my interior water pump but none of the outlets work I have searched high and low, but there is no breaker box, and there are no CF G.I. plugs. There is a fuse plate and all the fuses seem to be good, the battery is brand new, and I check to make sure that it was charged. I’m going to get a meter to check the outlets today, there are 5. I’m also trying to figure out how to add pictures to this thread. Thanks in advance.

Hello and welcome. I can't find anything on a trailer built by Crosley. All I get are images of the small English car. Is this trailer American made? Here is the link for how to post pictures. vintagetrailertalk.freeforums.net/thread/7276/add-photos-hosted-flickr-tutoria takes a little work to set up, but once you do, it is easy. It sounds like and I could be wrong, but as far as your outlets not working, they would not work with the battery connected. That's a different system. The lights and your water pump could be running off your battery. Your outlets need to get their electricity from what we call shore power. There should be an exterior outlet on the side of the trailer that has prongs in it. This could be the simple two prongs you see at the end of a typical table lamp cord or possibly the three prong grounded prongs that are common today. It would be unlikely that you have three flat prongs. If you do, it is now obsolete and will need to be replaced. An extension cord plugs in to that external recepticle. Rod |

Yes, you need to plug the trailer into shore power (house outlet or campground pedestal) in order to power your outlets.
Some trailers are powered with a cord/plug and others use the electrical inlet with prongs.
