USES
Your AC breaker box and your 12 volt fuse box are mounted on your bed
base for your convenience. There is no need to go outside to replace fuses or to
reset most tripped breakers, unless there was an overload on the generator, in
which case you will find a main breaker on the genset itself.
Additional interior light fuses are located on a slide-out shelf below the
refrigerator on 4200 series coaches.
There are several manual reset 12 volt breakers located on a panel in the
consolidated components bay forward of the utility station. These breakers
power the battery disconnect switch, the refrigerator, LP leak detector, dash

and water pump. The main 12 volt coach breaker is also located on this panel.
