Re: [VACList] 12V fuse block



Not sure about a Bambi, but my Overlander has 2 fuses mounted on the wall
near the battery box. In my case it is the front wall behind and beneath the
sofa. These protect the 12V system. However the breaker box protecting the
110V system is in a closet near where the 110 enters the trailer. The light
on top is a polarity lamp. It will only light if the 110 polarity is
reversed. Nice feature, EXCEPT that when lit the shell of the trailer
becomes electrically hot. Many people have removed the light to keep this
from happening and have purchased an inexpensive polarity and ground checker
to check the supply before plugging in.
