Furnace update ~~ email received from Atwood stating all will be fine with a slow burn fuse. The one suggested is Bussman 22715, light blue color 15 amp. It was stated it was available at auto parts stores.
Well, not available at Advance, Gulf Coast Auto Supply, or NAPA. I'll try to purchase online tomorrow.
Very fast response from Atwood.

Trail King is different than Trailer King. Not sure if they are any better or worse. I did not search Trail King but found TWO complaints of Trailer King.

I am referring to Trailer King tires and Power King (Tow Max) tires. I've no idea why it keeps "correcting" to Trail King ???

Ordered the required fuse from Wiretek.com to get the furnace working. Hope they get them out today and I can update Mon.

The slow burn fuse just did not sound all that ~~ so I called an electrician friend. He explained how 'it could be'. So I called a mobile tech. Told him all before arrival. He checked everything and found nothing. He called Atwood to verify the numbers he found and all is 100% in sync. Atwood told him to use a slow burn fuse. He asked where these can be found and this tech was honest and said "I have no idea so I'll send 2". No need for the furnace since so hopefully all is taken care of and the slow burn fuses to not blow when needed.
Only a few items have not been fully checked ~~ the HW and refer on gas and the black water flush. Everything except the light above the door works as supposed to.

Any auto parts store should have SLOW BLOW fuses they're pretty common.

They are in glass tube style. Advance Auto (2), Gulf Coast Auto Supply, NAPA, do not have them. These are the 2 pin style. Advance Gulf Coast Auto Supply,

Off Topic but
I Replaced all four of my Blowmax tires with maxxis and had them balanced and metal valve stems put on them. My tire guy said this would help the camper ride.
As some of you have stated not sure you can tell from pulling the beast but I can tell after we left something on the counter top a trip or two ago and it was still there when we stopped. SO it must have been a smoother ride.

Furnace Fuse
[QUOTE=CaptnJohn;191901]Furnace update ~~ email received from Atwood stating all will be fine with a slow burn fuse. The one suggested is Bussman 22715, light blue color 15 amp. It was stated it was available at auto parts stores.
I have a 2016 303 and also had fuse problems with my Atwood heater blowing the fuse. My dealer said there has been problems with motor windings that have caused the fuse problems. They replaced the fan motor under warranty. The Rep. I talked to at Atwood also said the same thing about the windings. Putting on a slow burning fuse is like using tin foil or a penny.
That slow burning fuse could let the motor or other wiring get hot enough to start a fire. Did you ever see a RV burn? NO WAY should you use a slow burn or a higher amp fuse. The furnace was designed with a 15 AMP so there is a reason for it to be blowing a fuse.
