Co-pilot electric chair

[firedog]

We had our slides adjusted and had a new electric mirror installed. (Both on passenger side) Once on the road I found my chair had no power. Is there a fuse or is it an electrical issue? We have a Thor class A diesel 2010. Thank you for any suggestions.

Now that's not nice. You need to learn how to say it Nice like I did up thread [emoticon] (thanks for the laugh by the way).

It should be a rocker switch with the bottom being "EJECT".[emoticon]

I suggested she wear a dog training collar I could shock her when she annoyed me, only took me 3 weeks in hospital and traction to get over her reaction.

EVERY 12 volt appliance has a fuse/circuit breaker. Doug

Thanks for the update, glad to hear you got your seat working...well, maybe I should say your passenger chair...

You two now know more about the chair electrical system than you ever in your entire life wanted to know.

OK, The fuses for the electric chairs can be a few places. Some RV makers use the fuse in the Chassis fuse block that would be somewhere in the front area of the motorhome. Could be inside/under the dash area or outside in a front storage compartment or raise the front hood and there. Other use a RV maker(not chassis maker) fuse block that will also be up front in the areas I just described. IT WILL NOT be in what would be called the 12 volt fuse center that controls all the coach lights and appliances. Also, you found the plastic quick connect. Make SURE that the 2 wires. 2 input and then 2 output. are IN that quick connect. When you rotate and go to far it rarely disconnects that plastic quick connect. Instead it PULLS one or both of the wires out of that quick connect. Doug

Not on topic, or perhaps it is.. But every time I read the subject of this post.... I'm thinking of a DIFFERENT kind of Electric Chair.

Connectors look good, but is there 12VDC there?

Check for 12V at the chair connector.
