Hi
I have a Electrolux RM640 1L , it’s not working on the motorhome engine battery and the possible cause is the fuse, can anyone tell me were the fuse would be please.
Thanks

Usually there is a fusebox that distributes all the 12V electrics, and the fridge fuse should be in that. These fuseboxes are made by specialist electrics manufacturers and are bought in by the motorhome manufacturer. What is the make and model number of the fusebox?

Note that a 3-way fridge has two 12V supplies. One low current (LC) supply to the control board, that is on all the time, and controls the switching between the three power sources. And one high current (HC) supply that powers the fridge 12V heater element.

The LC supply is presumably working OK, if the fridge works from mains and gas. The HC supply fuse is usually about 20A, and may be labelled Kuhlschrank if it's in German. It is usually only switched on when the engine is running.

Thank you for all the information, would the fuse box be in the engine department, then near the battery

No, it's usually in the habitation section, in a locker or cupboard. Or under a false floor in the wardrobe. Anywhere really, often quite well hidden. Maybe someone with a Bessacarr could give some hints.

There will be a big fuse near the leisure battery that supplies the fusebox, but I'm sure that is OK because if that blows, nothing powered by 12V will work.

Thanks again , I have 6 fuses in the wardrobe but I assumed they were for lights, pump etc as they haven’t got labels on them to identify what’s what.
I will check them out
