Topic: Breaker and fuse panel labels Posted: 14 May 2017 at 3:44pm |
StonyRiverDave,Mine 180 came like this with labels, but there is more going on here with the 12v side that you need to noodle out yourself, lots of shared things. for instance the bed area lights also power the both outside lights and the relay for the slideout but not the slideout, and the bath lights also fire the fan. Like furpod says, just turn everything on and turn breakers off 1 at a time and you will find out what they do in a minute. As for the fuses, it's the same process only you have to figure out what they shared. Good luck! and Congrats on the new pod! rgds John

Just email Forest River. I am sure they will mail you out two stickers. They just forgot to put them on.

Yours is the first I have seen unlabeled, and I have seen many.... The good thing is, you can reach every component and circuit easy to trace them.. the 30A is of course the main, the 20 is the a/c, after that just flip them to see what cuts off.. one is for the water heater, one for the gfci circuit and probably the fridge, though not always, 1 for the microwave, 1 for the converter, etc

Here is an image of the distribution box with the blank labels, except for the MAIN breaker. Full resolution image is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/49twnn2dg2k1hst/RP178DistributionBox.JPG?dl=0

Here's what mine looks like, there is lots of dual and triple use on the fuses though.
