DC Distribution Panel (12 Volt Fuses)
I have a 1999 Tow Lite TD and replaced four of the light fixtures with 12 volt Fluorescent lights. Replaced lights on the door side of the trailer work but the two on the galley side above the sink and stove will not work and the one in the shower, which I did not touch, no longer works. My thoughts are a blown fuse somewhere and my owners manuel indicates there is a fuse panel in a front cabinet compartment, but I've look high and low and cannot find a panel. Has anyone ever seen one and if so what did it look like and where did you find it on your unit. Any other suggestions appreciated. I did replace one new fixture with one of the old fixtures but that did not make a difference.

Our shower light has a separate switch on the back wall of the trailer, this is in addition to the switch on the light itself. Have you checked all odd switches?

Yes, I've checked all the odd switches and I too have a switch on the back wall in the bathroom, in addition to the switches that are on the light fixtures, but that didn't help. Thanks anyway, I'm sure I must have a blown fuse, just have to look again for th fuse panel. Will look again near the inverter box.

I couldn't see the forrest because of the trees! My fuse panel was in my front bench compartment just about in the middle, not far from the inverter. But... the panel had a cover that looked like a "do not touch" message. The panel is black and was inprinted so the lettering was black and with my bifocals it was very difficult to read what the panel was. Found the culprit fuse, replaced and all lights work. Thanks to everyone for the input.

Oh I also have a single switch on the wall of my 2001 Hi-Lo Towlite! We were trying to figure out what that switch was! It's next to the shower. It would be nice if the switches were all identified.

tinovack - Is it possibly the outside light? Mine is controlled by a wall switch that's not labeled, and not obviously for that purpose.

tinovac, my 2000 24'ere had a switch that controlled the light in the shower. It was a safety feature so you didn't touch a switch while IN the shower.

Oh ok I will go out and look in the shower to see if there is a light! IT will be nice to get all these switches figured out. Will have to mark them. Thanks.

mine also had a switch under the cabinet at the entrance (to the left-entrance lite), another outside under the front window curbside (light above the window center). Yours might also.
