Earlier I reported that the electrical power serving the passenger
seat had quit working -- and that I was unable to find any fuses,
etc. for it.
Today, while working on a totally unrelated matter, I discovered
_another_ power center in my coach.
The blue box and related material identified the main power center
behind a panel on the outside, front of the coach. A smaller,
secondary power center is in the rear closet above the engine. I've
now discovered a third power center, craftily hidden behind panels in
the cabinets above the windshield. This third power center has 20 or
so circuit breakers/fuses (which, of course, are unidentified as to
function) and a single breaker had tripped. (I'm guessing that my
spouse was trying to run several of the seat functions at the same
time, popping the breaker.) I had set up a temporary plug to use the
cigarette lighter, and over a period of months, we had no overloads.
Anyway, after resetting the breaker, power was restored to the
original wires, and now I no longer need to use the cigarette lighter
plug cord... and one source of complaints has been put to rest.
