USB Outlets
USB outlets may be located
in various places throughout
the coach. The number of
ports may vary. The USB
outlets are for charging
only and are not connected
to any entertainment
equipment. They simply
provide convenient
accessory charging without
filling your 120 volt outlets with chargers. Most USB
outlets require 120 volt power when located outside of
the cockpit area of the coach.
This article provides a functional overview of the USB outlet, auxiliary input, and 12 volt receptacles in a coach.
USB Outlet, Auxiliary Input, and 12 Volt Receptacle Overview
Auxiliary Inputs
USB ports labeled
with auxiliary input are
normally connected
to the dash radio and
allow input to the radio
via USB and or 3.5
mm cable. Refer to the
owner’s guide for the
radio for information
about selecting auxiliary
inputs.
12 Volt Receptacles
Your coach maybe equipped
with one or more 12 volt
receptacles conveniently
located in the dash area.
These 12 volt receptacles
allow you to plug in a variety
of 12 volt DC accessories,
including cell phone battery chargers, camera battery
chargers, etc. These are fused at 20 amps.
Diesel coaches may have an outlet designed for use with the engine block heater. It may be located in the engine
compartment or in one of the rear compartment bays.
Block Heater Outlet
This outlet may be controlled by the block heater button
on coaches equipped with a SilverLeaf touchscreen.
Coaches without SilverLeaf may have a switch in the
overhead cabinet to turn the power to the outlet on or off,
while others may be wired directly from the breaker box.
Coaches equipped with energy management systems
operating on shore power of 30 amps or less may have
power shed to the block heater if the other loads exceed
the amperage set on the energy management system.
The GFCI will not reduce the shock hazard if the short
is between a neutral and hot wire or two hot load
wires.
WARNING
!
4. If a tripped GFCI outlet will not reset, disconnect
everything plugged into them or hooked up
downstream; then try resetting the GFCI again.
5. If all loads are disconnected and 120V power is
present to the GFCI outlet and the GFCI outlet will still
not reset, it may require service or replacement by a
qualified technician.
If the GFCI is working properly, the reset button will
remain in the “IN” position. If an item plugged into a
slideout or outside receptacle is not working, check for
a tripped GFCI in the kitchen or bathroom. Likewise, if
the floor heat or holding tank heat pads are not working,
check the GFCI for that circuit.
