Hi All,
I’m Jack and my wife is Mel. We are newbies, sort of. We had a Class A for several years, sold it two years ago, and just recently purchased a 2018 Passport 2520 RL. We live in Northwest Florida and just completed our first trip this past week. Looking forward to our trip in a few weeks to Percy Priest Lake near Nashville.
We are currently having issues with the battery fuse blowing fairly regularly. Our electric jack won’t work when it is blown - our first clue it’s blown. Any thoughts about what could be causing this? All comments will be appreciated.
Thanks’

Do you mean the reverse polarity fuses or the circuit breakers?

Also if it's the tongue jack fuse you may be going beyond the reach/retracting limits.

My first guess would also be reverse polarity, i.e. the positive feed to the trailer is connected to the negative terminal of the battery and vice versa. Pictures of the fuse in question and the battery would help.

Welcome to the forum from SE Texas. Some more info and pics would help diagnose the issue.

That’s what the service writer told us yesterday. Can you please explain this? We haven’t ever retracted it com-lately but have lowered it enough to support the front of the trailer unit??
