12 volt problems (was comfort control 2003 LXI)

[timvasqz]

the newer rigs have a more advanced system of electronic control and wire loom.
I forget the name wanderlode system use. It would be fun to learn how these
systems work but for repairs it might be best to spend the effort to find a shop
or tech that wont be charging you tuition. These systems are a breeze with
diagnostics which lead to quick repair if the tech has the equipment and
ability. The systems are not very unique to just one brand but a god set of
prints could save time in a repair shop.

It may be that the biggest fail item (waterpump)in your list was the reason all
the things went offline. If you find that it is a single fuse, I would simply
replace the fuse then set up a way to power the pump independently or buy a new
pump to keep the amp load of the old from popping the fuse????? There is no
such thing as a bad fuse. Blown fuses are an 'issue result' not a cause.

I like blade fuses over the automatic resettables because you never know if
there is an issue with self resettables as they often reset out of any sign of a
looming (pun) problem.

Taillights are one of the places where selfresettables are dangerous. they often
work when you start out a trip with cool bulbs and wires but go off during the
run only to reset for the next pretrip checkup.
