In the one rear compartment, there's a black panel that has fuses and relays for the chassis. Where can I get replacements for the relays?

I'm not getting anything to the right turn signal or the 12v power for the trailer wiring.

I am not familar with what Newmar uses but most manufactures use standard relays available at just about any auto parts store. Look on the relay and see if it has the diagram of the contacts and the coil. If it does just take it to a good auto parts store and they should be able to match you up!

I looked everywhere and finally could find the proper relay only at Newmar. They are made in China, the US distributer is in Florida and there are a couple of other sources that I could never get into. (Have a son who does this kind of research for an electronics comapny) My recommendation-Call Newmar.

Wouldn't this be a chassis part from Spartan? Sorry, I've been away for a while.

I got mine at an autozone. Tell them it's for a GM blower motor relay. They are all the same.

I have had several go out on my "05 MADP. The first several I got from auto parts stores, at a pretty good price as I recall $12-$15 each.

A while later I found them at RV surplus in Elkhart for 75 cents ea.
Bought a handfull and have not needed one since.

That figures; once you are fully prepared, the problem never re-occurs

69R/R, take one as a sample to you local parts store, over the years I've seen dozens or relays from all the Big 3 auto makers, and had all sorts in my tool box; only to find that F/L used something different the first time I needed one.

Were you able to get the relay and did it fix your problem? My left turn signal/brake light isn't working and I'm not sure where to start troubleshooting.
