We started to break camp this morning after a 14 day stay and the slides stoped working and the power awning won't work. Checked all the fuses in the power box all were good and had power. Checked batteries all were fully charged. cheked fuse at the hydraulic pump it was good. Tried the remote and the slides went in just fine but awning still not working, pulled end of awning out and rolled up and tied in place with a rope. We had to move was only aloud 14 days. This is the first problem we have had with the camper it is a 2010 Fuzion 383 TE11. We full time in it so it doesn't get any down time. Is there a 2nd fuse or breaker behind the wall in the basement. I also pulled the switches out and they had no power to them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. George

Don't know about the electric awning yet to hot to mess with it today. Took all the stuff out of basement removed wall to rear checked all the wiring and found another fuse holder with a blown 15 amp fuse. Dumb place to put a fuse, pulled it out and tied it to a wire so I can get to it if this happens agan. Hopefully that fuse supplyed power to awning to. George

Hope that gets power to the awning etc. But why did it pop in the first place? when it cools down outside and hopefully all works. pull the fuse out and put an amp meter in its place and see what the motor(s) draw if it is not very high may be awire is chaffed on something and that popped the fuse. but please don't do what someone ealse did on this forum and put a 30 amp fuse in its place.:eek: Happy hunting:banghead:

No put the same size fuse in 15 amp. We have had this camper for a year and a half bought it new and it has always shut down when pulling the slides in let it set for a minuite and it would pull them on in. Usually the livingroom slide as it is the last on to come in. Haven't used the awning but a couple of times due to trees being to close. We full time so the slides get a work out we pulled from Texas to Alaska last year and back to Texas. If it pops another fuse I will get it checked out. George
