Electrical issue

Brand new cruiser embrace 2019 EL310.. Did my walkthrough on the trailer at the dealer everything was perfect brought it home and uhooked it and nothing electrical will work except for my one main slide and my awning.. The instrument panel with all my gages on it for water and things does not light up either. I checked the main circuit panel all of the breakers are good. Any ideas?
  • Will the slide work if reversed polarity? In would be out? He said the slide works.

    What if the reversal is at the fuse panel and not where the batteries are connected?

    The ONLY thing that will blow both Converter fuses are connecting the Battery reversed and THEN plugging in the 120 to the trailer. Doug
  • Hi guys thanks for all of Help.. So I have checked all the things you guys have mentioned and this is what I have found so far.. Battery disconnect toggle switch is working fine. I did find when reading through one of the manuals The converter that was hidden under the fridge.. It has to 40 amp fuses On it that were Both blown..so I replaced them and hit the battery disconnect and one of the 2 instantly popped..so I pulled the converter all the way out and brought it in the house with 2 new fuses.. plugged it in on the wall and the fan kicked on then shut off and no fuse popped..??
  • Slide out and awning 12V DC and most likely wired 'directly' from battery pos post

    Trailer may have battery disconnect switch which are typically close to battery on trailers vs at the door on MHs

    If no battery disconnect switch.....follow battery Pos Cable and check in-line fuse (or DC circuit Breaker) ....typically on underside of frame/tongue before Pos Cable goes inside trailer

    Yup, check for it near the door.
