Chassis Battery
If your coach is going to be unoccupied for
two weeks or more, Winnebago Industries
®
recommends disconnecting the chassis battery in
your coach to avoid battery discharge.
Unplug the Chassis Battery Connector
(located to the right of the accelerator pedal) to
disconnect battery.
CIRCUIT BREAKERS AND
FUSES – HOUSE 12-VOLT DC
All 12-volt circuits and equipment in the
coach area of the motorhome are protected by
either a fuse panel or breaker panel. When a
circuit is overloaded or a short develops in any
part of the system, a fuse or breaker will shut
down that circuit. If this happens, turn off all
affected lights or appliances and reset the breaker
or replace the fuse with a new one of equal
amperage rating.
House 12-Volt Fuses
A label on the panel states the amperage rating
and circuit protected for each fuse.
The fuse panel is located on the right-hand
side of the Power Converter.
The fuse panel accepts only blade type plug-in
fuses. Always replace fuses with those of the
same amperage rating.

Battery Boost Switch
See Section 3 - Driving Your Motorhome for
information on the Battery Boost switch.
Automotive Chassis 12-Volt Circuit
Breakers
A label on the Automotive Chassis 12-Volt
Circuit Breaker panel states the amperage rating
and circuit protected for each breaker.
NOTE: Breakers are labeled on panel.
Arrangement may vary according to
appliance and equipment options.
To prevent wiring damage, it is essential
when replacing the cables on the battery,
or when using a “booster” battery, that the
positive post and the positive cable be
attached and the negative post and
negative cable be attached. The posts are
marked (+) plus and (-) minus.
If a “boost charger” is used while battery
is in the motorhome, disconnect both
battery cables before connecting the
charger to avoid damage to engine
electronic components.
Never attempt to charge or boost a frozen
battery. An explosion can occur resulting
in personal injury.
