HELP? The whole unit goes dead..all fuses are good. If I pull the fuse frome the main breaker and put it back it works for a while. We were watching a DVD dead. Reset finished movie and it powered off during the night. I have tried finding a power plug to pull easily or a reset button. But that does not solve the why.. fuse panel is easier but not smarter I know. Any ideas what is going on? Above example is only one of several.. have pulled out panel and shook the wires expecting a loose connection..nothing. Thanks in advance.

Maybe try powering off all individual circuit breaker and slowly turn each circuit breaker back on hours apart if need to isolate which circuit has a short. Just thinking out loud here, maybe move trailer to a different pedestal and see if it's the site power issue.

You might need to give more information to get some help. Is it AC (120v) or DC (12V) or both that your're having trouble with? If your're plugged into campground post or running off battery. Circuit breakers are for AC and the fuses are for DC. So I'm not sure what you mean by pulling fuse from the main breaker, usually they'll trip and don't have a fuse.

I once had a fuse that looked perfectly good but when I replaced the fuse with a known new one it worked fine. Those blade fuses can be finicky.

IRV 62 is 12v DC. At least mine is.

Pull the IRV 62 and check the Power Input plug to make sure it is "locked" in...not completely inserted or locked in could cause intermittent operation.

We have a VMI333 and twice in one week the Irv panel randomly shut off. Pulled and replugged on the back of the panel but no change.
We called Venture and they suggested shutting off the A/C power and disconnecting the battery, waiting a few minutes and that should reset the panel. Venture said to take it to the dealer ASAP (that’s September as of today). The power reset worked both times. But now we are wondering how often the issue will happen, and if the power reset doesn’t work, we would have to retract all slides and awnings manually.
We had called a mobile RV repair and he said those panels are used on Forest River RVs and they replace them frequently because of failures.

I know I’m a bit late with this, but it’s kinda funny. We were camping with friends and after a few days he came over and said his stereo kept turning off and on. I was trying to connect to my unit and it wasn’t working. I finally realized the whole time I was connected to his unit and caused the problem. So ya just never know…………
