Title: DC Bay lights Out
Post by: floridarandy on August 15, 2021, 08:21:41 pm
Changing out to LED in bays. When reassembled I've lost 12v in bays only. Checked 12v fuses at foot of bed and all are ok. All other 12v seem OK. Ideas?

Remember led's are polarity structured.

Randy,

Those are fed off a manual reset breaker hid in the basement behind that fiberglass cover.

Mike, I thought it might be something like that. Tomorrow I'll have a look.  Ever had to go into that panel before. What else is fused there?

Randy,

I'm going to go out on a limb here, IIRC you have 2 rows of breakers on that year coach.  When you take the cover off look at the row on the right (or said another way)  the outboard side second from the bottom..  Now remember this is a WAG so no cost.

Ok, I'll take a picture. Dumb question, how is breaker reset?

If you look close there will  be a small button on the side that is poked out. Take something like a pencil and push it back in and it should stay in.  If it pops back out look for a bad door switch.

Thanks to all. EZ fix. Surprised to see how much is fused there. Good info for the future.
