Title: USB / 12 Volt Charging Station
Post by: lanell on March 21, 2015, 04:57:13 PM
[p]It seems the one thing We did not check on p/u is not working. Anyone know which fuse or breaker the (phone / accessory ) charging station is on ? I took the cover off and removed the 4 mounting screws out to check if it had attached wires , it did. My voltmeter shows its DOA atm. Is there a switch for it (don't see one nearby) ?  Thanks in advance ![/p][p]

Sorry dont have one in my camper.  However with the mini buss fuses you should be able eyeball them in you panel, if it's a blown fuse

[font size="3"]The USB charging station is a relatively new feature so most of us won't have one. Your best bet is the check each fuse visually or with a continuity tester/Ohmmeter. Also check the bottom two fuse slots; it's possible LL used one of them and forgot to put the fuse in.

For the future consider replacing all your fuses with the corresponding indicating type. These are more expensive, but each fuse includes an LED that glows when the fuse is blown. Makes it easy to spot a blown fuse and replace it after you've cleared the fault.
