Fuse location for slideout

Good evening
My #2 slideout would not open. I closed it with no problem. Drove to RV Park. Went to open it. Nothing. No noise, no movement at all. Thinking maybe a fuse might have blown. Anyone know where I can locate fuse or maybe a different diagnosis? Thanks PS it opened normally with hand crank😎

Those breakers/fuses are usually near the tongue or at the frame near the front. However, as SeaDog says, giving the model of RV you have helps.

2015 Flagstaff 27rlws 1 of 3 slide out not working>problem solved

The fuses for the 3 slide outs are located under the front right corner of the trailer within 15 inches of the battery. They are hanging down within easy view. The fuses are installed in individual water proof cases.

It sure would be nice if the owners manual stated where fuses were located. I also had problem with slide out blowing fuses. They were where CT-Flagstaff said. I replaced my fuses the re-settable type of the same size as the original. No more blown fuses.

Good idea. The resettables are similar to a slow-blow fuse. They won't blow on the transient startup current of a motor, but will act in time to prevent damage from a short-circuit or locked-rotor motor.

I’ll keep the resettable fuses in mind if I continue to have issues. Have a box of 5 regulars for now. As far as the manual having detailed service info. Very little if any I could find. guess that’s why this forum is so popular. Safe travels
