Hello all. Bit of advice / help needed if anyone can advise.

Currently away from home with the Motorhome and ‘someone’ left the top of the concentrate blue toilet bottle and it leaked all over inside the cassette cupboard.

I’ve cleaned it all up both inside and underneath the cupboard with about six rolls of trade blue roll and syphoned out the liquid that had leaked thro into the whale / water heater hosing. All now seems dry although blue stained.
Everything seems ok apart from the. ‘Water boiler’ fuse is tripped. Attempts to reset it trips the main trip, leaving the fuse switched off and everything else works.

Done a search on here and on the full Autoquest 185 (2017) handbook, for the wiring diagrams etc but I can’t for the life of me work out how to remove / check the particular fuse.
Any help / advice greatly appreciated.

Buy a bag of kitty litter to soak up any more liquid. Sounds like the electrics are still wet

Thx.
Will do but I’d still like to know how to get at the individual fuses if anyone can advise?

Is it possible that it is not a fuse you are looking at , but a 230v 10a mcb that is tripping because there is still damp/fluid in the water heater mains supply electrics that needs to be attended to (with the mains supply to the Motorhome disconnected)

Thanks - you’ve described it exactly. It is indeed the 230 v that is tripping. I didn’t explain it well. I tried to upload a pic of it but for some reason wasn’t able too.

I’ll leave the mcb tripped for the water heater and thoroughly dry everything out when we get back. Up in Scotland atm and it’s rather wet.

Thanks again,

The thread asks about fuses, but a blown fuse will not trip the breaker. That is damp shorting out the electrical circuit, hence the kitty litter suggestion
