It is actually an "auto reset circuit breaker", not a fuse. And the undersized 50 amp auto reset circuit breaker has been a much discussed problem for many years. In general the fix has been to replace that 50 amp with an 80 amp. Lippert has even approved that modification.

But it seems that one slide may actually have a real problem. Typically the heaviest slide will tend to be the most problematic. But tripping at every half inch is really a lot. Tripping 4-5 times before complete extension or retraction is more the norm.

I guess if it were me, I would go ahead and replace the breaker with an 80 amp and see if it corrected the problem. Every time that breaker trips it burns the contacts a little more and makes the problem worse. If the 80 amp trips then you know you do have a slide problem.


Here is a pic of my old auto reset breaker.
