12v habitation sockets not working

[rogerhaworth]

I have a 2008 Adria Twin. The two 12v habitation sockets are not working and I think I have fused them by inserting a charger who's cap I had not noticed had dropped off thus creating a short.

Does anyone know which fuse on the Electrobloc EBL 208 S E protects the 12v habitation sockets? Or is indeed the fuse elsewhere?

No idea but it should be easy to pull each, one at a time, to check remembering where you pull it from.
Unless of course they put the ebl somewhere inaccessible

Thanks for your comment. The EBL is easy enough to get at - you just fold the bed up and open a locker containg leisure battery EBL etc. None of the fuses appears to be blown and I've tried replacing fuses with new ones of the same rating but that doesn't get the sockets working. What worries me is that looking at the EBL wiring diagram I can't see the habitation sockets anywhere so I wonder whether they are wired directly to the leisure battery in some way?

In our 2006 Carthago the 12 volt socket fuses are separate from the EBL in their own holder nearby

Thanks so much - that's what I was thinking might be the case! Roughly what does this fuse holder look like on your van and what is it connected to?

Hi Bounty Hunter,
Does the fuse holder on your Carthago which has the habitation 12v sockets fuse(s) look anything like this? Roger Haworth

Hi rogerhaworth that looks like the split charge fuse and fridge control nothing to do with sockets.

Ps you have used all your free posts so until you subscribe you cannot add to the thread

Here’s a user manual that has a fault guide at bottom where it say 12v to living area, so I assume one of the fuses are indeed for the sockets, possibly the 15a fourth from right unless someone has already modified the wiring then it could be anywhere

Hi 1967bowesj:

You were 100% correct. The 15A fuse 4th from right on the EBL protects the habitation 12V sockets! I have now replaced the fuse and the sockets are live once again. I have also subscribed to motorhomefun.

Many thanks, Roger
