I am an admitted electricalphobic! Could someone help me with the electric stairs power source on this SunVoyager. I plugged in a ceramic heater and soon afterwards tripped the "roadside" breaker located in the breaker box at the end of the bed. Apparently at the same time I lost power to the stairs, door handle light and outside porch light. I was unable to find a breaker for these. Can some nice person help me? I am afraid to touch things that I don't understand. Trust me, I felt especially powerful when I located the breaker box! Can't find any info in literature. 2nd owner so I am not certain I have all the needed info. In the meantime, I will "step" very carefully out at night! Thanks all!!

Do you have any power in the unit now, is it plug up now ,the porch light and the steps are 12V powered

Thanks Mark,
Does that mean that the breaker, fuse or whatever is near the battery compartment or drivers side? How will I be able to identify what is what? Do you think this had anything to do with the roadside power outage which powers all the electric outlets. Everything is working inside the coach. The only things out are those switches at the entry steps and none of those are working. No power steps, no stair lights, no porch light and no entry light.

Those would be on the coach fuse panel as they are 12volt feed a tripped 120volt breaker would not cause a 12volt item to not work unless it is the A/C or refer also check the gfic plugs just to see if all those are good

There are three fuses for the steps. Two of these should be in the Battery Control Center and the main 30 amp should be near your house battery bank where other circuit breakers, fuses and relays for the chassis are located. you will find two files for Kwikee steps here iRV2 Forums - Files - Electrical Good luck and keep us posted.
