ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS
Your motor home is equipped with three electri-
cal systems:
the chassis 12-volt system
the Fleetwood 12-volt house system
the 120-volt AC system.
They operate together to give you electrical
power for many different situations.
Batteries
Your motor home has two battery systems. One
system supplies 12-volt DC power to start the
vehicle engine. The other system supplies 12-
volt DC power to the house living area and
starts the generator.
CHASSIS 12-VOLT
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The chassis 12-volt or vehicle electrical system
generally includes:
the chassis battery
chassis/house battery charging system
ignition system
instrument panel and controls
headlights, taillights, turn signals
power entry step
Propane detector/alarm
leveling jacks (if equipped)
slide-out (if equipped)
fog lights (if equipped)
air horns (if equipped)
power seats (if equipped)
radio
luggage compartment lights
other vehicle lights and accessories
Chassis Bulbs and Fuses
Always replace bulbs and fuses with equivalent
types and ratings.
Fuses will interrupt the flow of electricity if a
circuit is overloaded.
See the American Coach Information section
04 in this manual for the locations of breaker
and fuse panels used in your RV.
FLEETWOOD 12-VOLT HOUSE
AND AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEM
This system generally includes:
• all 12-volt interior lighting fixtures &
outlets
• fresh water pump
• satellite
• 12-volt accessories
House batteries provide 12-volt DC power.
These batteries are not the chassis 12-volt
batteries. Power is also provided by a DC con-
verter that operates when the motor home elec-
trical cord is plugged into 120-volt AC power
source or by the generator (if equipped). The
house batteries are charged by the motor home
engine alternator, or by the converter when it is
operating.
NOTE
Power for living area radios and tape decks is avail-
able from either the chassis or house batteries. A
switch on the instrument panel allows you to select
the power source. If you use the radio, tape decks, or
other 12-volt DC equipment for long periods of time
when the motor home engine is not running, either
battery may be discharged.
✓
CAUTION
Always replace bulbs and fuses with equivalent types.
The type is marked on the bulb or fuse.

CAUTION
The systems in this coach are not designed to be
used for any life-support applications. In the unlikely
event a system in this coach should malfunction, or
fail to operate, it is possible any connected appli-
ances, including life support equipment, may also fail,
resulting in potential medical complications.
