Running Lights and Guages - Fuse for 2001 Thunder
« on: January 26, 2017, 01:36:01 AM »
We are stopped at a rest area.  Dusk and we have no running lights or dash guage lights!  Can anyone tell us where the fuse might be for these???  Have manual but does not match what we see.  Can't find burned out fuse.  Guess we're here for the night, but any help on this model would be greatly appreciated!  Still have hydraulic problem - no slide, no jacks... Bad experience at La Mesa RV in Quartzsite and just trying to get to Phoenix!

Lights are coming on, then off, then on, etc.  Seems like a loose fuse or connection.  Headlights are doing the same.  Where should we check for loose connection?

Dale,
What did you find as the cause? Answer may help other Beavers in future.

I got onto the Forum too late tonight to proffer checking all the battery and other connections, Dale, but thoughts first went to the oft-failed ignition solenoid in the electrical bay.  So I'd also like to know the resolution, as it sounds like it might've been something else.
