Stabilizers and Awning not working

I own a 2016 Wildwood 30kqbss travel trailer. I had already had everything out and lowered but needed to move it again. Once I got everything leveled after moving it the Awning and stabilizers won't go out or down again. The fuse panel doesn't have a red light indicating a blown fuse. The GCFI isn't tripped. HELP!!

Press the switch for the stabilizers and at same time have someone look at the fuse panel, only then the red LED will light up indicating a blown fuse if that supplies the stabs and awning....

Might be this.



Located between the battery and the outside wall is one place to look, follow the wires.

Press the black button.

My FR Vibe has another panel under the cabinets that has 12 volt fuses for that stuff. I had one blow and had to change it out

If you have a remote control the fuse on the remote control panel may be blown. I just replaced mine on my 2016 Wildcat Maxxx in order for even the outside switches to operate their functions

We had the same problem. You'll find that your remote will still work them. That's because it is a separate group of fuses when the remote control is used. In our Wildwood the awning and stabilizer fuses were behind a panel on the floor to the left of the sink. We had to remove the bottom drawer to access them. It seems to me they were next to the water pump. Why they hid them there I don't know. IF you can't find them call your dealer (as I did) or call Forest River.

Got it!! I finally found the missing panel! It's underneath the refrigerator. There was a broken 15 amp fuse under there. Replaced it, no more problems! Thanks everyone for your input! I learned a lot!
