Just set up here at Tropical Palms in Kissimmee Fl. Moving to Fort Wilderness on Saturday for a couple of weeks. Good to be back on the forum. Hope everyone is well. Our campground season is over and we are closed up. Putting in a small waterpark now and have been swamped w/project planning.

Anyway, my over the air TV antenna booster does not have power including the 12v receptacle above it. I can't seem to find the fuse. Anyone know where it might be located? Or is there another cause to this problem I don't know about.

Hi Scott,
The fuse might be located in the panel containing all the other coach powered 12V fuses. However, who knows what the label is. In my coach that panel in a cabinet over the toilet.

I doubt the power comes from the chassis battery. But, if it does, you'll need to find where the chassis 12V fuses are located. Mine are located in the first exterior compartment on the driver's side of the coach.

Just to complicate matters there is another 12V fuse panel in the electrical bay, behind a panel held in place by velcro strips.

I had the same trouble. Mike is a '99 DS and GUESS WHAT: Mine was located on the fuse panel in the VERY Back cabinet where the 12v. lights, etc are. I have two other 12v. panels, MUCH closer!

Go Figure!

Found it.

I noticed this afternoon that the radio in my outdoor "entertainment center" did not have power either. A fuse in the main house 12v block in the bathroom at the top said "TV Ent". It was bad.

I am going to guess that there was some power surger or lightning strike on the antenna. That means the fuse did its job and gave its life for a good cause.
