Title: Basement lights on right side all went out. 2001 U320
Post by: dwest on November 18, 2013, 03:18:44 pm
All of a sudden, all the lights in basement on the right side (curb side)have gone out. I haven't been able to locate a fuse or circuit breaker dealing with them. Any suggestions or help?
Left side lights work fine.

could be the small circuit breakers behind the white fibreglass panel in main bay. 3 screws/nuts to remove then feel down those breakers for little buttons and see if one has tripped. My 2000 and others are done this way so probably yours too.

A wooden Popsicle stick works well to reset those breakers. The reset buttons are tiny little buttons on the sides of the breakers. I had the same issue after an unfortunate incident that involved fresh, clean water overflowing from the toilet. D'oh!

Yes, I too now know about the tiny reset buttons as well.  I missed the feature, and ordered a new breaker.  Later Bill Chaplin show me the reset buttons.  He is way smarter than me about electric, switches, breakers and the smoke that comes out of motors and wires.

I had the same problem on my coach. Reset the cb and open your bay doors one at a time til you find which switch trips the breaker. I found two contacts touching on mine this way.
