ADMIN NOTES
Description: Miscellaneous resources for owners of Dutchmen built T@Bs. North American T@Bs were built by Dutchmen from 2004 to 2009. Like their European counterparts, Dutchmen T@Bs were equipped with surge brakes rather than the electronic brakes found on later models manufactured by Pleasant Valley/nüCamp.

Surge Brakes -- troubleshooting tips

Dutchman (DM) T@B Fuse between the battery and converter
The DM T@B's do not have a fuse right at the battery like the nüCamp T@B's. This "shortstop" 30Amp fuse is screwed into the tongue. Trace the red (positive) lead from the battery and you will find it. The fuse can be found at various auto parts stores.Symptoms will be a fully charged battery, but the lights and other 12V accessories won't work on your T@B battery. Replace this fuse and it should work, unless there are other problems, too.
