We have a 05 Vectra 36Gd. We do not get a left-turn signal when we hook up our toad. The last time this happened, a fuse had blown. We know that the fuse box for this is on the driver's side towards the rear. Does anyone know how to get to it? I am assuming we have to take the back panel off. Thanks for any suggestions.

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content"> Another thing to consider is a blown fuse. Easy to do when wiring up a new toad and/or making your own cables and there is a separate set of fuses for toe wiring recepticle.

On my Journey 34H the tow recepticle fuse block is located in the shoreline electrical bay, to the right behind sheet metal. The engine ECU is located here too. I would beleve it's in the same location on your Meridian. Take the sheet metal off to gain access (4-5 screws).

Another methood to verify location of the fuses is by listening for the emergency flasher relay which is located in the same area. Turn on your flashers, open up your bay/shoreline doors and walk around while listening for the clicking of the relay. That's where the tow recepticle fuses are.

On Vectra/Horizon's this same fuse block is on the opposite side of the coach behind the A/C cover (unscrew and it hinges up).

For what it's worth thes fuses are not to be found on either Winnebago's or Freightliner;s wiring diagrams.

I took out the 3 screws on the inside wall ... the end of the sheet metal on the inside wall moves ... I could not get the outside end of sheet metal shield to budge ... what am I NOT doing to remove this sheet metal covering?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I got it ....

I needed to remove the screws for the strut bracket for the compartment door ... they had driven the screws right through the shield ...

You have to remove the screws that lock down the compartment door covering the airintake for the radiator cooling. There are four screws holding the brackets of the door. Two are underneath at the rear of the coach and two are on the side which you can see when you open the electrical compartment door right next to it. You can rotate the door up like the electrical compartment next to it and will need something like a broom handle to keep it open. The fuse box is located to the right of the radiator just about below the tail lights
