Dometic/Sealand Vacuum toilet problem

While de-winterizing our 2011 Bounder Classic 36R, our vacuum toilet would not work. Neither the green or red light on the panel would turn on when turning on the power switch for it. Questions I have are, where is it powered from? Where is the fuse, and last where is the vacuum pump located at? Is it enclosed by the sheet metal channel running along the upper side of the storage bins in the rear drivers side? Any help is truly appreciated. Thank You

Then we had to feel for the the reset button because it was on the side of the reset that we couldn't see. Just pushing the button put us back in business.


    Yes this is how many of them are. You have to look real good with a lot of light.

    Thanks for both of your responses. Did not find it in either location. CP contacted Fleetwood today and they sent schematics for our rig after providing the VIN, along with a picture of the breaker. While it was not where the picture indicated, it did let me know what it looked like. Found it near the inverter, under the refrigerator. Had to pull out bottom drawer in hallway to access it. All is well now.

    We have an 08 Southwind with the vacuflush, the reset is located in the front bathroom inside a cabinet just behind the master switch. It has a reset button I think - we've never had to use it. Hope this is something that is easily fixed.
