Circuit finder

[Pete Masterson]

Appreciate the suggestions ... but no breaker and no 12v outlet are
located as indicated on my coach. Indeed, the only 12v "outlet" I
have is the cigarette lighter on the dash above the radio. There are
two 12v load centers, one in the rear closet (street side) and one
accessible from outside across the front of the vehicle. If there are
other load centers or distribution panels, they are behind instrument
panels that would require serious dismantling to get to ... it would
seem unlikely that fuses would be placed there.

I suspect that the power source for the seat has come loose somewhere
-- and, ultimately, it may be impossible to locate where that
occurred. However, it would be nice to see if I could find "the other
end" of the wire if it is in the forward load center where I suspect
is resides.
