Jack and light dont work?!?

After getting home from our first trip in our new 2017 26BH AR ONE MAXX the jack and light won't work. I looked all over for the 30amp fuse it says is under the gearbox cover but only found a relay. Any clue on where this rascal may be hiding? I've checked everywhere. Thanks for any help!!

Did you check the main fuse at the battery as well? This is (usually) in a small rubber holder a few inches from the positive battery terminal. It is possible that it blew before the protection in the jack, however none of your other 12V would be working with shore power disconnected.

BTW, make sure you don't fully retract the jack as this often blows the fuse with a current spike as the motor strains. Many put a mark (or accentuate the one already there) on the jack bottom to remind themselves where to stop.

Any circut is best protected if the fuse is close to the battery. I would hope it would be near there.

Only fuse I've ever seen with a jack/ light was in between the jack and battery. An obvious inline fuse. Other than that not sure. Everybody that I know of wires them straight to the battery.

I just picked mine up recently. During the PDI, the tech didn't know where the fuse was. We followed some wiring to just under the front bottom of the trailer. You might check there.

After an hour with a test light and several new cuss words I seem to have found the blown fuse. Right where you gentlemen said it was. Couldn't see it because it was cleverly buried within a pocket in the tounge. Thanks so much fir the advice and direction.
