[Smegg]

need help; been working on old fleetwood not getting any power to zig unit but am getting power both sides of elcb [new one] any help would be most appreciated thanks

[(RIP) PLANK]

so are the wires live when they reach the zig? have you had a meter across them? are you sure it's not the zig that has popped a fuse?

I can't hold my breath any longer.....what the hell is a 'zig' if its not one of these two...?

a unit for converting mains to 12v and distributing it to the various needs of the caravan, also manages leisure battery power and charging. no the best of descriptiong but i do my best

so its a rectifier and a bit besides? See that wasn't difficult (except I had the think for a minute to remember the difference between an inverter and a rectifier :doh).....

Its a box for turning big house wiggly amps into little caravan wiggly amps so they can fit down the wires better.........simples.

Zig was a brand but its also a short word thats easy to remember.

Dont you know anything :doh ;)

thanks mates; after re checking the feeds i had a look inside at the back of the fuses it looks like the fuse holder had been twisted and the wire had slipped out of previos repair block now on to the faulty fridge.
