Don't know about the 3500, but mine is in the front compartment by the batteries. Either red or orange wire, inline fuse.

I suggest installing one of these:

(The 3 amp fuses are only shown for a size comparison)
Please reduce the size of the photo. It is a bit too large and causes folks to have to scroll to read all the text. Thank you. RVWheels

As others said, it's inline near the battery. It's easy to miss. On ours there is a rectangular socket in the line. There's a cover over the fuse so you don't see the fuse until you pop the cover. If it weren't raining cats and dogs right now I'd go take a picture for you. If you still can't find it, email me (envelope icon above this post) and I'll take a picture for you.
The breaker Ozz pictured is great if yours uses a 30 amp fuse. Mine uses a 40 amp fuse. I've not been able to find, even online, a replacement breaker at 40 amps. All have to be hardwired. I have one, just haven't wired it in yet.

Steve-- "My long lost twin brother"-- A little rain never hurt Midwesterner! It's that White Sunshine we have here on the ground now that is the culprit that can do the damage! Sorry Mike for jumpin' in on this thread but had to throw that in! That is another item this guy has to do this spring when the White Sunshine disappears-- putting in the inline resetable fuse or breaker! My job never seems to be done! Maybe I can talk Ozz into coming up to Omaha and helping with the projects!

Hey, little brother, come on down! As Ozz says, we know the good places to eat. Actually, Vicki and I know them because Jim and Sue showed us! However, I'm not coming back up there for awhile. Too darned cold in the winter and too hot in the summer. We'll be back late October or maybe November.

DH just replaced the motor for the front landing jacks. the power was intermittent and he discovered the cables were broken inside. Nothing to do but replace it. The cost was approx $150 for the part and DH provided the labor. took about 20 minutes to change out from start to finish. Works great now.
