Fuse Inventory

Sgtjohn - Hmmmm, just checked my USB ports and they're not working now either. Used to. Everything else is working including the cigar plug next to them in the same outlet. Weird.

Took a look at mine and the port itself is bad.  I checked the power and it has power but something is wrong inside the port itself.

Nomad

Since we both have that problem I wonder if LG got some defects.

Sgtjohn

I checked mine with a meter and there is no continuity between the poles/connections so mine is shot.

Nomad

Sgtjohn - So you're saying you have juice to the poles on the backside of the outlet but nothing coming out the ports? I'll have to dig in and check mine (now where did I pack my voltmeter?)

Just a note concerning the fuses in the t@b... Poking around seat with the propane C02 detector I discovered an inline fuse on that line... Did not open to inspect type ...t@b in use at present...don't need any surprises...! 
That is an inline fuse...correct ?

Yes, you are correct.  I took mine completely out and use the ohm meter on both terminals and there is no continuity.  It should have continuity-that is, a complete circuit within the USB port but alas none was found.

Same with mine - Betting Little Guy got a bum shipment.

I've emailed Ed at LG and he said to take the T@B to my dealer (which is around 180 miles away) or call.  I've tried calling buy they are moving so I'll wait until they finish I guess.  I checked EBay and you can buy a new one for around $8.00.  I'd really like to put a new port in mine=perhaps on the back area somewhere since I have two laptops and an IPhone.

You might want to check if this is true, but I have heard that Camping Worlds can do LG warranty work, too. I am not sure where I heard this, so definitely find out. Maybe call Scott from LG.

In reading this discussion I have a question or thought. There is 12volts going to the lighter AND usb terminals. However usb is 5volts. I would think there is some electronics between the two connections. Therefore no continuity. You still have a bad port though

I was at a local electrical shop and was able to pick up almost all the fuses on the list. However when it came to the 3-way fridge ones, the guy said they had what was listed but needed to know if the 3AG ones were quick acting or slow blow and if ceramic or glass. He assumes glass but said they do have all of them. So this is for the AC Circuit - 3 Amp Type 3AG, DC Circuit - 20 Amp Type 3AG and Gas Circuit - 1 Amp Type 3AG. Thanks for someone clarifying.

Ed Kauffman could tell you if you call the factory.

Is the list posted here for fuses and such still accurate for the 2015 models?

With a quick look, I would say yes, but it wouldn't hurt to open your convertor and check. Unless the Alde model or A/C model has changed, everything else should be the same.

FWIW, I have never had a blown fuse. When I read the forums and FB I thought it might be a habitual problem, but, so far, so good! I do travel with spares, just in case, however.

I am a newbie. I don't know where all these fuses are located. I have been reading a lot of the forum and I appreciate all the information that I have found.

Nomad

Toritide - Most of the fuses are in the converter box - It's a brown plastic box located on the front of the driver's side bench seat. If you press the front face of that box, it will pop open and the breakers and fuses will be inside. It's like a junction box in a house.

jschemel

How does one figure out what each fuse is for?
We are trying dry camping and want to totally turn off some things like the refrigerator (it's 2 way)

Nomad

jschemel - There's stickers inside that tell you - Again, kinda like a home breaker/fuse panel.

jschemel

The students got left out of our box. We asked the company but got an incomplete answer. Will continue to explore. 

Nomad

Here's what's in mine...

jschemel

Thank you for the useful information. We will be working on how to dry camp for longer by pulling some fuses. We just got back from a 3 week trip and we learned alot about our little home away from home. We had all types of experiences (will comment in other threads).

Ramrod

Great information, Thanks!

Bjreimann

I realize the initial posts were awhile ago, but we just purchased a 2017 T@B S and have used it 3 nights - after the 1st night, the USB ports back by the bedroom no longer work.  Sgtjohn & PXLated, what did you end up doing to resolve your issue?  Thanks!

Nomad

I got mine replaced under warranty - Installed it myself.

Tabaz

Hidden fuses - one at the back of the Jensen unit and another behind the television (in-line).  Did someone mention a fuse under the propane stove?

Ratkity

There was a bad batch of 110V-USB outlets. Call Elise at PV. They can send you another or you can work with your dealer to replace them for you.

ericnliz

Mine didn't work either![USB ports], replaced @ no charge under warranty!

So, I was doing OK collecting my backup fuses until I got to the Norcold fuses. I found the 3A at Amazon but they want $20 for one. The Norcold site is down. I guess it wouldn't be catastrophic to be without the frig. Does anyone know of a good source for these? I've searched the web but that's making me feel like a lost golf ball in the tall grass.

That is the only place I found it. I keep it wrapped in tightly and where it won't get damaged. 

Nomad

Do you have a link to that fuse? I should probably have one.
