    Just got assigned a 2015 389 with a flat top, and when I started putting my tv in the sleeper I realized both 12v power outlets in the tv area don't work. I checked the fuse box under the bunk, but can't find out which fuse is the right one. Most are labeled, and the rest just say accessory. Didn't want to stand out in the heat and start pulling fuses, so I figured I'd ask if anyone else has had the same problem. Any help is appreciated.

    Really could use some help here guys. Checked all fuses, and nothing is blown. Saw that someone had posted a thread with the same issue, but when I went to look at it, it wasn't available anymore. This is driving me nuts.

    Is there power to the circuit in the sleeper fuse box?

    I don't have a tester, and it's not clearly marked on the fuse panel. Nothing is labeled power outlet, only accessory for I think 4 or 5 different fuses.

    Grab a tester and start stabbing. Start at the outlet and work back. Do the sleeper dome lights work? I drove one and sometimes the whole sleeper electronics would act up.

    Everything electronically works like a champ. The ONLY things that don't work in the sleeper are the power outlets.

    How many miles are on it? If it's a 2015 it may still have warranty.

    My last truck was wired with outlets but it had to be connected to the inverter
    Look by the inverter and there should be a heavy cord. Mine I think was orange? Was a Pete
    But make sure it’s connected

    Dang it!!
    Old post got me again
    But I guess info for anyone new guys?
