THOR #21466
House Power Disconnect

2013 Thor Tuscany 40 EX, Switch inside entry door suddenly does not disconnect power. l Replaced switch and a breaker under the hood to no avail. I read there should be a latching relay/solenoid that is probably the problem. I tried turning the switch off and on to hear a click and could hear nothing. Can anyone help me with the location and what it might look like? Assume there should be 3 wires?

The latching relay has small 5amp fuses on each side, check those first. Also a latching relay can be found on Amazon if your model is the same. Disconnect all power sources when changing the relay, house to batteries.

Good luck. Keep us posted.

Latching relays have 4 connections and may look like this:



or this:



The fuses are inserted in the relay in the first case and in the second case there is a single inline fuse on one of the control wires.

Curious about the hood? Pictures perhaps?

This is a class A DP?

Check power to your switch, be sure Switch is not defective.

Keep us posted.
