Actual Fuse locations in the 2018 Classic?

HI all,

My main lights in the front part of my classic aren't turning on.

None of the breakers, (or those cure little white button things), are thrown.

the breaker panels say it's #4 with a 5 amp. But where are those fuses?

Any help?

Thanks

DAve

Is your AS owner's manual any help on this, perhaps in an appendix in the back?

With shore power disconnected, have you checked all the wire connections in the breaker panel? They often jiggle loose over time:

Good luck,

To my knowledge all the 12v breakers are on the G6 panel behind the false wood panels below the clothes locker. However there is more 12v circuitry and junctions in an aluminum box under the center section of the sofa.

Good luck

just went through something similar not with lights but with the table motor on my 2018 33 classic. I was told there are no fuses, there are only breakers by the AS dealer here in Atlanta. I know I pulled just about everything looking for a breaker panel.....good luck and if you happen to find a fuse panel I would be very interested in where it might be located.

The fuses are on the right side of the same panel as the circuit breakers. The breakers are only for the 120v side of the trailers. The 12v is all fuses. These are mini-fuses like you find in modern cars. You will need a puller to remove them. Unfortunately, they are not labeled, although the amperage is color-coded. https://www.onallcylinders.com/2017/...r-truck-fuses/ Five amp is light brown.

Doesn't the owner's manual have an illustration of those fuses, perhaps in an appendix in the back?

I have also looked and not found fuses. The owner's manual also does not list any fuses. I believe the 2018 Classicss only have breakers.

Hi ORTA15,
Thanks for replying to my post.

To answer the question in your reply, ... the owners manual refers to a 12v distribution Fuse block but not it's location.
So No luck.
I sent a message to AS support. ... 2nd attempt

Hi Steve and Thank you for replying to my post.
So question for ya.
On my 2018 There are two false panels under the wardrobe. 1. is a panel that has breakers and the other 2. is a panel with a bunch of round buttons.
What I don't see is a Fuse block.
What I'm wondering is where this 12v fuse block is on the 2018 Classic.

Hey man, you're in Atlanta too?
I'm in the Johns creek area.
We should get together and compare notes.

I'm thinking there aren't any fuses, ...
I'm beginning to think that this FireFly System isn't that good

BTW Peter, ... This eve I was able to research my owners manual and 5-10 it refers to a 12v Fuse panel but not it's location.
My breaker panel has what looks like it should house a fuse block but it's blank, (see the image that I attached to a reply to FrogLips.
