Blown Frige Fuse - In A Bind!

I just happen to be at the stick house with the fifth wheel plugged into the garage. only thing I had running was the frige. All appeared well two days ago. Went out just now and frige was off. Discovered the 15 amp DC fuse blown. New one blows immediately. Furnace apparently runs on the same circuit - it is dead also but had not been running.

So what do you think. We were supposed to leave for the East coast early on Wed. No mobile techs round here. :R

Thanks

    First thing IMO is get a handful off 15 amp fuses, disconnect the 12v at the back of the fridge and try it with the furnace to see if it works. You want to know if it just the fridge or just the furnace with the short. Or anything else on that circuit--test that separately.

    Once narrowed down, depends what to do next.
