We have one slide and a power tongue jack so that would make sense.
I seem to recall a fuse in the panel marked "slide". Will have to wait to go check as we are having a rare dump of snow today and the TT is kind of buried at the moment.
Is there any reason why they can't be relocated rearward a foot or two to get out of the rain better? Why are they near the battery - is it to better protect the positive wire to the battery from overload or short circuit?
Pretty sure they're the auto-reset type.
I've got two in the same location and one is for the slide out and the other is between the vehicle charging and battery and to the converter. I had to replace mine due to corrision and when I did I coated them in the 3M ScotchKote to protect them better. They are there to serve much the same function as fusable links and you want them as close to the battery as possible so I wouldn't move them much further away from the battery.
