It's been raining for days now and I thought I would check out more electrical, On the 96 U320 the fuses for the lights,wipers, stop lights & and the other fuses that are for the driving part, I looked in the manual and it didn't say much. Where are they? So I looked under dash, not there. So I looked on passenger side at the foot panel , and are they the fuse able type fuses ?
Looked at the wiring schematics and I can see them, but it doesn't say what type they are.
Thanks Art
They should be resettable Circuit Breakers.
you have pictured the resettable curcuit breakers and in the bottom of the panel you will find some bosch relays as well.
So If you have a problem they reset them self's, ? What happens if you have a short , what do they do ?
Thanks Art
I just helped a friend replace some of these that are mounted behind the drivers side rear wheel (on a '95 U320). The outer casing was almost completely rusted away but they were still passing power OK.
I've seen them called "self resetting dc circuit breakers"
I don't know a lot about them but here's a quick description (they call them "Short Stop" circuit breakers):
Bussman DC Circuit Breakers (http://www.wiringproducts.com/contents/en-us/d60.html)
They appear to be polarity sensitive because the post are marked "BAT" and "AUX".
Art, Terminology may be confusing.
The CIRCUIT BREAKERS behind the panel at the right side are just that, Circuit breakers, if one trips it will RESET itself after a short period, nothing you can do about it except find the reason for the trip.
In the bay under a WHITE cover secured with two nuts ( maybe wing nuts ) there are RESETTABLE circuit breakers, these have a Small tab on the side and when they Trip you can push in on the tab and if cause of trip has been resolved they will reset. I forget what all they control but among other things are the water pump and I believe the refrigerator.
Hope this helps

And while on the subject you will also find 12 V FUSES in a panel usually under the end of the bed , the same area where you find the water heater electric switch and the Block heater switch ( at least on the GV's ).
