12-VOLT HOUSE CIRCUIT
BREAKERS
All 12-volt circuits and equipment in the
coach area of the motor home are protected by a
breaker panel. When a circuit is overloaded or a
short develops in any part of the system, a
breaker will shut down that circuit. If this
happens, turn off all affected lights or appliances
and reset the breaker.
A label on the panel states the amperage rating
and circuit protected for each breaker.
Fuse Panel
The House 12-Volt Breaker Panel is located
behind the small cabinet door near the galley or
below the refrigerator.
*Typical view of breaker panel. Actual breaker
labels may vary according to appliance and
equipment options. Breakers are labeled on
panel.
WARNING
To prevent wiring damage, it is essential
when replacing the cables on the battery,
or when using a “booster” battery, that the
positive post and the positive cable be
attached and the negative post and
negative cable be attached. The posts are
marked (+) plus and (-) minus.
If a “boost charger” is used while battery
is in the motor home, disconnect both
battery cables before connecting the
charger to avoid damage to engine
electronic components.
Never attempt to charge or boost a frozen
battery.
