Can not find 12v disconnect solenoid

New to forums....
Just purchased a 2007 Four Winds Fun Mover. The 12v disconnect switch quit working. Mistakenly hit the hot lead on backside to metal while working on it. Saw small sparks. I have read there is either a fuse or breaker at the solenoid. I have checked under hood, around batteries, under fridge, and under sink. No bed to check sense this has a garage. Checked around fuses and even behind fuse panel. I could hear the clunk before around the area before the door to garage. Please help....Thanks!

I have a small 5 amp fuse on the lead to the solenoid at the solenoid. Our models are different but look around the electrical panel area.

We've searched top to bottom . .interior and exterior . .no solenoid besides under hood. Today we chased wires from switch which lead us back to fuse panel box..could it seriously be behind in between shower wall? We took the faceplate off panel nothing but metal casing around it..

Usually it's close to the house battery to save long expensive wire runs.
