  • Trailer Light Fuse?

    Posted by Bill on July 4, 2016 at 5:18 pm

    Guys,

    coming back from Hilton Head today and the Rear Trailer plug on the bus is completely not working.

    I confirmed and cycled the Marathon Tow package Switch nothing changed.

    I checked the trailer and it’s good

    I checked the Marathon Tow Package box and everything looks right to me.

    Does anyone know if/where the fuses on the prevost side for the tow package is?

    Thanks BIlll

    Bill it may be completely different for your H3 but on mine when you open the rear engine doors you see near the top front of the compartment a gray metal rectangular shaped box with what appears to be a wing nut on each side facing you. They are attached to bolts. Remove the nut/bolts and the door lifts up to reveal the fuses. Good luck.

    I agree with George. You may have to pull several to check them out.

    That also houses the turning, brakes, etc., I believe

    I am stopped for the night So I will check it out in the morning.

    I have a box that looks similiar to what you both descirbe but it is on the bottom and contains all the relays. I wasn’t able to find any fuses. I will give Marathon a call in the AM if I can’t find them.

    Thanks

    Bill,

    For the whole box to be dead it sounds like power has been removed. You may look in the small compartments on each side rear (Prevost) and see if there is a fuse or breaker. I assume your bus lights are working.

    Leon can tell you how to test the box, it’s not that difficult.

    that at is what Leon said to do we confirmed 12 volt at box and now it appears to be working. My box doesn’t look anything like your photo. Where is that located in you bus. I have a box of relays but nothing as high tech as your photo

    thanks bill
