2. Disconnect the RV auxiliary battery main negative battery cable.
3. Remove the fuse panel cover to check fuses.
4. Pull the fuse straight out of the fuse block. If the fuse is not blown, something else
must be causing the problem. Please contact your dealer for further assistance.

inal location. Never use a higher rated replacement fuse.

BATTERIES

Your RV has many 12VDC loads. When combined, their total is more than the converter can
produce. High demands for 12V power can be met by an auxiliary battery for limited peri-
ods of time. The 12VDC electrical system is designed for usage with a Group 27, deep cycle
battery.
