Fuse Panel

I have been trying to find a fuse panel layout so that I can indentify the circuits in my 2001 5529 RL Montana. I have tried the search function on this forum but I am having trouble making it work.I keep getting SQL errors and time outs on my searches. If anyone has information on the panel layout I sure would appreciate it.

Would also appreciate any suggestions on the best way to trace the 12 volt and 120 circuits in case I have to trace them from the converter.
The labeling in my panel is really bad and I can't read it.

Thanks...

I don't think anyone really knows. I presume you have a Magnatek panel. Which one?? Is it wired for 30 amps or 50 amps???

It's a 30 amp magnetek 7300. I have now been able to identify all the 120 volt circuits. I will start tracing the 12 volt circuits this week end, when my wife can help me. If anyone is interested in what I find, I will be glad to post them. But I guess all converters are wired different, even with the same model and year trailers.

I just thought I needed this information, thus a project to ID the circuits.

Hope everyone has a happy new year.

I appreciate all the help I have received on this forum as a Montana owner and new forum member.

Hi Ray,
I went and looked at our 2001 2955RL with the Magne Tek 7300 and this is what I found. On the 120 volt circuits from left to right: 20 amp main,20 amp aircon,15 amp microwave,15 amp GFI,15 amp unknown(bad writing),and last 15 amp waterheater.
On the 12 volt side from left to right; 1: living room, 2: bath room, 3:kitchen,4:bedroom,5:slideout,6:another unknown,7:TV/refer,
8:LP detector,9:furnace.All 12 volt circuits are with a 15 amp fuse.

I would like to know what my "unknowns" go to.If you figure it out please let me know. I wonder how closely matched the wiring in our f/w's are, someone told me that even the dealers don't have a wire diagram,plumbing either.

Maybe I should get out the label maker and re-mark the panel.

Have a safe New Year's, hope this information helps.

Thanks Steve, So far I have verified my 120 volts circuits as....

Left to Right...

1. Main Disconnect.
2. Air Conditioner
3. Micro Wave Cooker
4. Ceiling Fan and Light (my 3 roof fans are 12 volts)
5. Television Wall Plugs for bedroom/living room sets, Radio/Stereo, 120 Volt Lights/WallPlugs. (including the GFI circuit) I bet the TV booster is a 12 volt circuit, but will let you know.
6. Refrigerator (I think my water heater is on this circuit also, but I need to verify that). They both have 12 volt circuits also I think.


I will double check all of the 120 volt circuits and trace the 12 volt circuits this week end and post my results.

Thanks for your input Steve.
