ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
12-Volt DC Coach Fuses
Each 12-Volt DC circuit is protected by a fuse. When a fuse
blows, shut off all appliances on the affected circuit and
replace the fuse with a new one of the same amperages.
12-Volt DC Chassis Fuses
Refer to the chassis operator's manual in the Motorhome
Information Bag for chassis fuse functions.
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
Various outlets in the motorhome, particularly those near
sinks and water supplies, are connected to a GFCI.
A GFCI detects electrical current that is travelling along
and unintended path and stops the current to reduce the
risk of electrical shock and fire.
If a GFCI breaker trips, unplug all the appliances on that
circuit, and press the reset button on the outlet.
To test the operation of the GFCI breaker, press the test
button.
If the GFCI trips repeatedly, have the problem
investigated and repaired by a qualified technician before
using it again.
The GFCI will not completely eliminate the risk of
electrical shock. Small children or persons with heart
conditions should be extra cautious because electrical
shock could cause burns or cause the heart to stop even
when a GFCI is present.
NOTICE
The GFCI circuit in the bathroom will trip when a fault
occurs at the exterior receptacle.

12-VOLT DC SYSTEM

The 12-Volt DC power system in your motorhome
consists of the following two distinct, but interconnected
battery systems:
An 80-amp self-reset breaker protects the 12-Volt
coach charging system.

CHASSIS BATTERY

The chassis battery operates the vehicle starter, vehicle
accessories and all the vehicle controls on the instrument
console such as the heater fans, exterior lights, horn,
speed control, windshield wipers, etc.
Disconnecting the battery cables from the chassis
battery can clear the engine/ transmission logic
modules.
These modules will automatically re-calibrate when
you reconnect the battery and start the engine.
