Both my cab and habitation 12v sockets are not working. I suspect I might have blown a fuse using a tyre inflator compressor.

Is the cab 12v sockets totally separate from the one in the van.

It's a ducato. The ebl is shault. Hope someone like Lenny HB might know off the top of their heads without me having to go searching.😀

The cab one in the centre consol is fed from starter battery all the others will be from the hab battery
Normally a 1p amp fuse from the hab battery either in EBL but if the socket is by the TV the fuse may be in a seperate fuse block next to the EBL.

Been there, done that myself! I always clamp direct to the battery now when using my tyre compressor as it takes too much power using a socket and they blow the fuse but also overheat before that happens.

My Carthago had 2 sockets on the dash, one powered by the engine battery the other by the leisure one. When I blew the leisure battery one inflating tyres I found the fuse hidden in a separate fuse holder tucked below the CBE DS in the garage. I had to resort to the manual to find it.😱
