17' Series Fan and Light in Ensuite

[Hosko]

Good afternoon brains trust,

My wife is currently away in our Expanda and the light and fan is not working in the shower/toilet. She has replaced the globe and nothing. She has checked the fuses and that seems fine. From peoples experience what could the issue be?

Hi Hosko,
probably too late a reply. If you are on 240v I'm pretty sure you still have to have your house batteries switched to on as well to have the exhaust fan and LED light work in the shower. We have a 2017 14.44 expanda OB and this is the case for us.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

The 12v comes from the the Setec whether its via 240v or the battery, so it should work regardless.

thanks for the replies. It would appear that we needed the house batteries turned on. still coming to grips with how everything works. The jayco is very different then the 1978 Cabana

The battery switch should always be turned on, other than providing 12v when not connected to 240v it can get charged when connected to 240v.....does seem strange that battery has to be on when on 240 to power certain items, that would imply that some things are connected direct to battery, most intriguing, as they should all run through the Setek.
