Can anyone tell me what this is. I have 13.6V on left terminal and 0V on right terminal. Is that a standard readout as that I am having issues with my electrical? These readout a are all while plugged into 30Amp shore power in case that makes a difference.

It's a buss fuse rated at 150 amp.
Sounds like it's blown.

Any auto parts store could get you one next day I'd think.

Very interesting why a 150 amp fuse would blow unless there was a direct sort somewhere. Since it's a new rig, maybe the terminals were tweaked a bit during install and finally fractured the conductor. Who knows.

I'm not sure but for 13$ I'm hoping this is the culprit of my recent electrical problems. I have one on order at NAPA so I will update on my results once installed.

Napa would have been my choice as well .
Be careful installing the new one and let us know if it works.

Did you remove the batteries or were they on a battery tender for the winter?
