Winnebago Minnie Plus Blowing Fuses

I have a 2019 Minnie Plus travel trailer that blows 20-amp fuses immediatly after applying power. I noticed a blown fuse indicator light when I plugged it in today to prepare for a trip. The fuse is labled Slide 2, but I only have 1 slide out. Something else is shorting the circuit. Anyone have suggestions on how to do some troubleshooting? The slideout I have works even with the fuse blown. Appreciate any help. Thanks.
  • If everything works with the fuse blown, you could just leave it for your trip.
  • Its not uncommon for the manufacturers to pinch a wire somewhere, such as between frame and floor, or to run a screw or staple through a wire, or water line. Junk construction to no end. Find the wire connected to the terminal for said fuse and chase it.
  • It might not be easy to find. It might help if you determined what didn’t work when the fuse was blown. It might give you a clue. Question: does it blow immediately every time you put a new fuse in?
  • The replacement fuse blew immediately when I turned the power back on. I will dig into it more to see what is not working. Something is shorted. Thanks for responding.
