New to the Montana Owners Club

We just purchased a new to us 2013 3100RL. Anyone out there that could help us locate the circuit panel and fuse box? I've looked under the stairs, under the bed, out in the battery compartment, in all the cupboards, behind the tv, in the cabinet under the tv. We are baffled! Ideas?

Look for a rectangular black plastic panel which is normally on the right on the floor as you enter the door. That is where it typically is located. I don't remember the 3100 floor plan but I would think it would be similar. Anyway the black plastic panel has a door, just touch to open, and everything is in there.

Thank you.

Nothing at the door, left or right. Straight ahead at door is the only plastic, which is the vacuum system. Appreciate you attempting to help. Enjoy your day.

OK it isn't obvious, then I have another suggestion, The 3400 model placed the CB/fuse panel in closet in the bathroom. Maybe the 3100 is another one to use this location?

If I couldn't find it any other way, I would take the basement wall off and see where all the wires go. It's not a bad thing to do anyway because you may find a furnace duct not connected or something else you should know about.

Found the circuit and fuse panel! OMG! Under the big window in the living room, behind the recliners. Opposite end of rig from power source. Probably why it’s been moved forward, in more recent models.

Thanks you both for your helpful replies.

Don't know if this will help you or not, but on our 3400RL the circuit breaker panel for both the 110V and 12V circuits are located in the bathroom on the wall above the toilet.

Where does your shore power connect outside? Near the panel?

On our 2012 3100RL, when we walk in the door look straight ahead and next to the vacuum is what you are looking for.
