Hi all, Can anyone help me please.

My sterling europa 495 has an omnivent which will not work probably because I turned it on the fast speed first and it stopped.

When I read instructions as to what may be wrong it states not to start on speed number 3 as this sudden surge could blow 15 amp fuse.

However I cannot find this fuse anywhere, I looked behind cover of omnivent, under seats  cupboards and near consumer unit all to no avail.

just wondered if anyone may have had this problem and might know where to find it,

thanks very much.

Just read my instructions for the Omnivent and if you look at Fig 8 it suggest that the connector is "Stored in the adjacent space upper frame". I wonder if the fuse is an "In LineType" stored in the same area.

I tripped mine by switching from suck to blow while the fan was in operation. The fuse was located on the main charger unit with a bank of fuses and was a 15amp spade type (the colour coded type) which just plugs in. There should be a bank of fuses somewhere near there that covers all the 12v wiring in your van eg: Aux/Lighting/ etc.........check the 15amp ones to find which one is blown. They should be somewhere accessible as you shouldn't have to strip your van to find it.

Went to storage tonight determined not to leave until I found it, And I did find it but not where I would have expected it to be. There was a fuse block near the front of the caravan under the seats and I found the blown one so its now sorted.

anyway thanks very much for your help.
