Owan 4K circuit breaker?

This is sort of a pre problem question.

Does a 2005 MH 4k have circuit breaker that needs to be hand reset if overloaded or is it an auto reset? If manual where is it?

    I had to find mine one time. I was exercising the genny (30 amp) with 2 space heaters 12.5 amps each. DW went out there, said it was hot, and turned on the AC. Like they said, right side, facing the rear of the RV. You have to lean to the right and look back toward the front of the RV to see it.
  • Thank you both for the info. So far I’m grateful the gen was not needed, YET. It will probably be awhile till I can remove the snow drifts to get to it. Global warming!!! Wind chill this am of around -20.

    On our slightly older 4KY, it's on the right hand side of the box the Start/Stop switch is mounted on. That's to the Right AND on the Side, not facing you like Start/Stop does. It's manual re-set, and I forget which way is On and which is Off, but it's marked. Doesn't have the snap to it that a home breaker does. I believe it's a Magnetic breaker vs. the Thermal ones used in houses.
