DoormanWelcome to Barthmobile.
Try to find where your shore power enters the coach. This may be out of the generator compartment. Your 120v breaker box should be inside close to this location. (check in a closet) You should find a small fuse panel in that area. Might be in an electrical box enclosure.
A 1970 is one of the older coaches on this forum.

yes the 120v is in closet i'm trying to locate fuses for the 12v that go to the coach area. There is fuses under dash for motor, dash and front heat but can't locate fuses for coach lights. what few were working I knocked out by messing with water pump know have lost all 12v in coach area.

bill hMost of my 12 volt coach fuses are also in the closet.
Others are scattered. One or two in the genset compartment, one at the water pump. A couple above the radiator in front.

DoormanIf you can't find a small automotive type (glass fuse) panel near your 120 v panel. Find your 12 v converter.Might be under a closet floor panel. There might be fuses mounted on top of it.

Sloop John BMine are under bed on drivers side just in front of wheel well with a door to front of them also found after a year that they can be reached by removing mattress and a large plywood panel. This makes 12 and 110 amp fuses totally accessable.
All who wander are not lost.

smittyThanks every one I will keep cleaning and looking for fuses. It's a big project but hopefully it will be worth it. Will c/d I have heard about have information for this old of vehicle?

BarthBluesmobileIn my rig, there is a switch to choose the 120V source, and near that are circuit breakers for the 12V power delivery, I seem to recall. Perhaps you don't have fuses to be found. There are conventional circuit breakers for the 120 VAC power, and pushbutton style 12VDC breakers.
