Title: 12v sockets don't work
Post by: boostin20v on August 05, 2016, 06:13:56 pm

Since I bought my van in the spring none of the 12v sockets have worked (either side of the bed in the rear or in the dash).  I was able to get a copy of the Bentley page for the 12v socket wring listing three outlets making me wonder if its for the Camper rather than a MV Weekender.  I've checked all the fuses under the dash and the three under the drivers seat and none are visibly blown.

Anyone have specifics on the fuse location for an '01 Weekender or other tips/tricks?

Did you ever find the issue- I would check the fuses under the seat (assuming its a weekender)

Wondering if you have figured this out?  I am having the same issue in a 2002 ev weekender I just purchased.  I will keep you posted if I get resolve.

Have you checked the aux battery under the drivers seat?  I believe all house peripherals are powered by the aux battery.  Have you checked to see if you get power while the engine is running?  If so its the aux battery.  If the aux battery is dead and you are not getting any power at the peripherals while the engine is running it might also be the relay beneath the seat.

I hope it helps.

I just come here to ask the same question. In the Bentley it shows fuses under the drivers seat for the weekender but I have the MV.

I've checked under there and no fuses for me.

Anyone figure this out?
