12 volt winegard fuse

I lost power to my 12 volt winegard  tv distibution system. I can't find the location of  a fuse or the 12 volt source. I am also looking for the location of the antenna splitter. If anyone can help I would appreciate the help.  1995 240 foretravel grand villa  thanks mike barber

Mike, in my 88GV seems to me the splitter is in the floor of the closet near the bedroom with  the 12v switch and power. Your 240 may be different. ^.^d  Hope simple fix.

Don't know exactly where yours is but here are some places to look.

In one of your bays there should be an electrical distribution panel behind a fiberglass panel. Pull the panel and you should see some small black rectangles in a row with wires in and out with a very small metal push button on it. These are 12v circuit breakers. Use your finger to feel each one if you're lucky you'll find one that is firm and you can put it in. If so go test your winegard.

Under the dash should be a bunch of standard auto 12v fuses. Check each one or check your wiring diagram and figure out which one the winegard is on.

At the foot of the bed should be 12v circuit panel for house 12v. Check each fuse.

If you're really unlucky there's an inline fuse somewhere in the circuit. Bad news is could be anywhere...

There could be more then one antenna splitter in the circuit. The main one is usually under the false floor in the closet.

Good luck and happy hunting!

see ya

In my 93 GV and this 95 GV it is in the right side wall of cabinet next to bedroom or under the floor in that cabinet.
Pull carpet up and remove screws in plywood panel.

If I remember right when you remove the plate from the wall with the antennae connector you will find a fuse on the back side of it.
