Marathon Node Relay Fuse
Sharing info…. I lost my Galley Accent rope lights. The Accent switch turned the correct color when pressing, but no lights. In the Marathon manual there are electrical diagrams that show the locations of the many Node Relays as well as the 12v wiring identifying each source. I knew the Node I was looking for was behind a panel in the trash can compartment. Sure enough, the 7.5 amp fuse was blown, replaced and all is well. Left it on for a couple hours and no problem.
Once you find the location of the Node Relay, when you press the light switch you should see a little red light in one of the 5 circuits that correspond to that switch. Each of the 5 circuits are labeled, mine said Galley Accent Lights. You have to remove 4 screws and the face of the Node comes off as in the picture below. There is also a little black test button inside for each circuit.
All of the switch panel functions are controlled with these Node Relays and you’ll have a bunch of them scattered all over the bus. So before you panic, check the appropriate Node it may just be that simple.

Good to know…
Ninety-Five percent of the battle is locating the right tech-link node box since these node boxes are all over my bus. Replacing the fuse, as long as I can get my fat fingers in there, is the easy part.

Tom, you are lucky. Someone went through all the trouble to write on your switch covers what each relay/switch does. I don’t think that is a standard Marathon feature. Mine show no writing or markings. Makes finding the right switch a bit more challenging.

All of mine are labeled Gerald from the factory, but fading real bad. I’ve seen every one over 3 years of digging in every nook and cranny.
