The blue 15 amp fuse in spot #7 is your furnace fuse. The red light indicates that the fuse has "blown" and is no longer functional. You need to pull that fuse and replace it with a known good fuse. That should get your furnace up and running. If the fuse continues to blow, you have another problem, either with the furnace control board or with the wiring from the fuse panel to the furnace. Once you replace the fuse, if the furnace operates normally, it was just "one of those things". If, however, the fuse continues to blow, you need to contact your dealership and schedule your RV for service.
ADDED: It appears from your photo that the bottom two 15 amp fuses are spares and are not needed in your trailer application. If so, you might pull one of them to install in the slot #7 to replace the bad fuse.

Your red light on the fuse picture indicates a open circuit. If I'm reading it right that looks like number 8, your furnace. Did you pull it out and look at it?

Fuses are for your 12v dc system. Breakers are for the 110v AC system. Breakers can be reset. Fuses need to be replaced.

JRTJH is spot on. There you go, you needed help. You can't do better than that.

Great, good Job. Now you have heat. Next time out may want to pick up some spare fuses.
Added: Good to check in and see problems solved

Now, honestly, how can you beat that? At ten his furnace quits and at ten thirty it is working. And John didn't even ask for after-hours wages. Is this a great site or what? And not only excellent advice from one person, but THREE?

The forum stands "at the ready" for any situation. What chance does a "little fuse" have against the "super powers" on this forum !!!

A forum concentrating on GM trucks I'm on has an incredible user base. One Canadian member out on his snow mobile with friends had a problem. They were close to civilization but 30 miles from his trailer. He sent a forum PM to another member who he knew lived in the area. Got a phone call 10 minutes later and an offer to help get the snow mobile back to where he started from. Communities ROCK!
