Using a fuse of a different rating will defeat
the circuit protection provided by the fuse,
which could result in damage to the motorhome
electrical system. If a fuse has been replaced
and it “BLOWS” repeatedly, that may
be an indication that a fault exists or an
electronic component has failed. It is
recommended that the motorhome be
taken to a qualified RV technician before
any future use to diagnose and repair the
problem. Circuits are identified on the fuse
label located on the inside of the electrical
door. Remove 3 wing nuts, turn cover
over. to view.
Relays
The motorhome uses various
relays to operate electrical
equipment such as lights and
motors. If a relay needs to be
replaced, carefully record the
location of each wire and all
markings or labels.
Relays can look the same in appearance, but
differ in function. Note that on the side of the
relay is a schematic drawing identifying if the
relay is 87 or 87a relay. These current ratings
differ, and if mixed, will create problems.
Ensure the replacement relay is of the current
rating to assure proper operation.
Another indicator to the type of relay is the
post or legs. Turn the relay over and look at the
post.
Note the differences between the numbered
posts:
1. The 30 post is the incoming fuse and/or
breaker power. Some relay applications
supply power to the 30 post. Some use
it for ground. The 30 post can be used
many different ways.
2. The 85 post is one side of the coil,
tripped different ways.
3. The 86 post is the opposite side of the
coil, tripped different ways.
4. The 87 posts are not common to the 30
post until the relay is tripped. When the
relay trips, both 87 posts are common
to the 30 post.
