2015 Bounder 35K VACU FLUSH

Howdy all! Been quite a while..

I’m here in DFW at Loyd Park and the bitter cold last night has somehow disabled my toilet/black tank vacu flush system. I reset my 12 volt system but nothing.

No clue what happened, the aft bathroom was had no cold water but did have hot water last night, it must have froze since the aft end is without heat in the blowing wind and cold.

The water bay and wet bay are and we’re fine temp wise. Cold water is back on line now in rear bath sink shower and toilet. But vacuum switch and lights are DEAD. ��

But today there’s no vacuum system which is very bad since it won’t drain without it. Both toilets are on this system so I’m up the creek until it comes back on.

Any ideas? I see a plunger in the mid ship half bath left there by the prior owner, please if anyone has an idea and experience with this vacu flush I’m all ears!!

on mine when the black tank is full the Vac-u-flush will not work, wondering if your black tank has froze up causing a false reading.

No power at all. Not red light indicating full tank. Dumped and rinsed black tank about 12 hours earlier. Definitely can rule that out.

There is no power at all to the vacu flush readouts, toggle switch is dead as well. No re or green led no nothing

Can't help on your 2015 but my 2016 the fuse is in the Power Platform, re-settable type. Mine is on the left wall but there is reports of them being kind of hidden anywhere in there.

I think I remember seeing an inline fuse near the pump, and isn't there one also in the multi-plex with the other 50 fuses?

I had a 16 Bounder and a 19 Southwind ... I carried a spare pump in both for the reason that if the pump fails... I have ZERO working toilets.

I always figured I could get a mobile mechanic to switch it out as long as I had the pump.

That vac-u-pump system is one of the reasons I don't have either of those coaches anymore.

Good Luck

I would love to have the person that put the schematics together and said exactly where the location of the circuit breaker is and it is exactly nowhere that it says it is talk about aggravating.

Merry Christmas to all !

VacuFlush Breaker

On my 2015 Bounder 35K the breaker is in The passenger side next to the inverter, above the propane tank. It has studs for the wiring with a push button to reset the breaker

My 2014 Southwind 35A has the breaker on the roof of the LP compartment, to the extreme left about halfway back

On my 2012 Bounder 35k, there is a resettable fuse in the bedroom behind the lower right drawer. You have to remove the draw to see it. Good luck.

This vacu system is nothing but a pain.
