As to an answer of why, I don't have a answer. If the breaker feeding the
baths is GFI also I would probably remove the GFI outlets and just depend on
the circuit breaker one. Over the years I have changed the outlet types ones a
few times. Just don't seem to have the quality in them.. If that doesn't
clear the problem since I couldn't tell from the post which was tripping. If
it is the circuit breaker GFI then I would replace it with a regular circuit
breaker and leave the individual outlet GFI's in place. If both trip or they
take turns then a ground fault exists somewhere which means open things up and
really do some searching.

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] GFI's
Back in early December my wife and I bought a triple wide mobile home. As
most of you know, that would be in 3 sections joined together. On one of
the outside sections, there is two full bathrooms. After we moved in I had
a electrician friend of mine come in and restore power to both bathrooms
which have GFI's already installed. Once here, he found the problem right
away. On that section there is an outlet on the outside for the patio which
was fried. Also, in the breaker box, the breaker for the 2 bathrooms and the
patio outlet is GFI as well. If I lost you, I'm saying that where the
breaker is tripped, it is also equip with a extra GFI as part of the breaker
switch. That was fried too and was replaced. Well last night I plug in my
digital player to charge in the extra bathroom and there was no juice. I
reset it and asked my wife if she had any problems in the master bath, and
she told me she had to reset it every time she used the blow dryer for her
hair. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?
