Slides & Awning Power Location (Fuses)

Somehow I have no power to my slides and awnings on my XLR 380 AMP. I don't see a fuse blown in the internal power panel, but the labels are so poorly done I cannot tell where the source of the power for either is originating. Switches appear to be dead on the wall.

Does anyone know what the fuse location is for the slides and awnings? Looking for some tips on where to start.

Thx

Look on the tongue, under battery box

Mines a fifth wheel. Seems to be a power distribution block above the battery. Any other ideas welcome. Thx

i would consider pulling the actual switch panel off the wall and looking at the rats nest of wiring back there. The power supply wires jump from one terminal to the next in a daisy chain. If a wire came off it may affect several items down stream. also may be a hidden fuse back there?
Other thing to consider is the LCI remote system, there are fused on there if I remember correctly.....

Check Ground

I had problens with my slides and and canopy. I thought it was the battery. I took it into the shop and they found that the ground wire off the battery at the tongue was loose. Check that

It seems every model is wired differently and even some that are the same model.
Most are poorly marked, if marked at all.
Schematics from the factory are well kept secrets for some reason. Maybe because they don't exist?

This is one of those cases where a test light or multi-meter and the knowledge to use them to test circuitry is going to come into play.

Best of luck and let us know what you find.
It adds to the library of knowledge when others start searching here.

I have a Flagstaff 5 th wheel. 2013 model. My landing gear and wardrobe slide at time does not work. I have down where the battery box is is a red looking switch this is really a circuit breaker. If you put your finger under it there is a little button that when you push with your finger you will hear a click. That click you hear resets the breaker. The little button goes back to normal. Hope this helps.

Fuse for slide

I had the same problem this summer with my TT. Finally found a rubberized fuse containing small 'box' between the battery on the trailer tongue and the body of the TT--had to get physically contorted to locate it, but once I found it, it was a simple fix--I will know exactly where to look next time!

Look for a bus with perhaps 8 wires connect to the aforementioned breakers beside the battery
