Shut-Off 12 Volt / IH45

May 27, 2023, 10:35:11 pm

I have a 2017 IH45. Where do I shut off the 12-volt?

Experiencing Silverleaf issues and MOT's after adviser recommends shutting off 12 volts since the SL reset located in the water service bay has not completely fixed the problems. -However, the nice gentleman does not recall where the 12-volt shutoff is located.

On our 2019 ih-45 there are 3 cutoffs. On at cabin door panel, and a red knob in a driver's side compartment; these kill house 12v. The third cutoff is back by the chassis batteries for chassis 12v.

In my 14 IH45 I I have one in front passenger bay up high, and one in charger compartment on drivers side. There is also the master switch just inside the walk in door

Thank you. My master switch at the door does not turn off all the 12 volt. I do not have the red switch in the battery bay or near the inverters. In the morning. Tomorrow, I'll continue to search the other bays. Just finished driving 650 miles today, and am parked at a Walmart.

The 2014 and 2015 seem to have items in same compartments. When I was looking at a 2017 items were in total different compartments. 2018 is when Foretravel went to Spartan.
