Default 3300 shore power bad

The shore power on my 3300 stopped working a while ago. I don’t use it for much other than occasionally the fridge and the battery charger, so I switched to circuit 2 and ran those items off that. Now circuit 2 is apparently shorted somewhere, it trips the breaker in the house and I can’t get power to anything. Appreciate any input on tracing the faults. Thanks!

Does line 1 work with the main breaker on and all other off? If so turn one of the on at a time until it faults and you will know where to look. If not either the main breaker is bad, wiring to it or the receptacle.

Thank you for your guidance. I had been using a cheesy amazon adapter to hook the power cable to the house. Apparently that was bad because once I got the boat in and at the marina, circuit 2 worked fine on the 30a plug and with the adapter out of the equation. Circuit 1 was a bad main breaker at the back of the boat. I had the marina do it because apparently the oem breakers are not available new so a new one had to be adapted ... the mechanic fabbed up a plate to get a new breaker to fit inside the oem housing. Pretty happy everything is working and it was a relatively minor fix. I was worried it would be something on the main panel.
