SaniCon Fuse Location

[patgreenair]

I have blown the fuse for my SaniCon on a 2016 LADP 4519, can anyone enlighten me where the fuse for that is located, I haven't been able to locate it yet?

Are you sure you blew the fuse? I ran my SaniCon for about 25 minutes emptying out my tanks thru a ¾" hose and it stopped just before the 2nd tank was empty. I also thought I had blown a fuse, and I looked everywhere. After about 20 minutes of looking with no success, I figured the motor might have a thermal protect circuit, so I turned the switch off and then on again and it worked. Mine is the turbo version on a 2020 so I am not sure about yours. But it might be worth a quick check.

I replaced the original "standard" sanicon with a new "turbo" 600s sanicon. I knew the existing wires running to the sanicon looked undersized, but I hooked up to them temporarily to see if it would work. The motor can on and ran dry with no problem (only ran it a second or two dry). I had pumped water into the black tank and when I open that valve and the water got to the pump, it only ran for a second (pumping a lot of water fast) and then lost power. It dawned on me that I didn't think about what size fuse the old one had, so I started looking for the fuse and have yet to find it. I'm thinking I might have to run a 10 gauge "hot" wire from somewhere to the location and install the 35 amp fuse that came with the new sanicon, but I still need to find and replace the blown fuse in case something else is on that circuit.

Sure could use some insight from someone who has run in to this!

Dang, sorry I can't help you Pat!

Definitely sounds like a fuse then since it died immediately under full load. Hopefully someone can chime in with a fuse location. If not you might have to break down and call Newmar tech. I really do like the new Turbo SaniCons.

Good luck!

Here is a diagram that I did for my 2018DS. What you need is a relay from a larger amp Circuit. On my DS the fuse was behind the cord real. I’ll attache a picture of the location
Hope this helps
