hi! the electrics (lights, etc)in our pathfinder will only work when connected to ehu. i thought the lights would also work when not on ehu. i have the switch set to van which then shows a charge of about 3/4 so the battery seems fine. the transformer does not come on unless on ehu which i presume is correct. does anyone know if there is a fuse for just the 12v that may have blown though i would have thought the same fuse runs both the 12v and the mains . its not a major problem as i plan on always using ehu but there might always be the need for it(eg ehu goes down on site). any advice would be appreciated, gary

Yes there will be a 12v fuse somewhere. Do you not have the handbook? Maybe a friendly Pathfinder owner will be able to tell you where to look for it. I'll see if I can find one for you.

If you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, just keep going till you go round the bend.

Dug the destruction booklet out and apparently there is a fuse located by the battery, it says that it is a 20 amp yellow one with Brown / Blue wire.

Hope this helps

Is it all the lights? the one in the loo goes by a different route to the ones you plug in.

yes i`ve tried the loo, hob and wardrobe lights. also the fridge. i`ve seen a post somewhere with the same problem on a fiesta and it turned out to be a disconected conection block by the previous owner behind the rcb unit. i think i`m going to have to trace the wiring but unfortunately i`m no electrician!
