Dead bed

After a flawless last summer I am on my first trip out and the electric bed is dead. I am going to run out and buy a 30 amp fuse but any suggestions? A wiring short? At a loss because it worked fine when I put it away.

Just to close this out I was finally able to fix this. The control box which is located up by the motor must have had a loose connection. It was not easy to get to and ultimately I needed a ladder and the rear door open but wiggling those wires got it working. Just an fyi in case someone else comes across the issue. I think it is pretty easy to loosen the connections if they are hit by pillows or something as the bed is raised.

Thanks for the update. I actually store my bed raised up with the pillows touching the motor, will have to keep an eye on that it sounds.
