Matt,

The fuse that Tom was referring to is actually on the ground cable. It's either a 50 or 70 amp job. It's purpose is to prevent you from having a dead short in the electrical system, or in Tom's case a locked starter because the engine is locked. I actually have two of them. One is in the main ground cable, and one is in the ground cable that is dedicated to the starter.

Your coach is very similar to mine. I can see the fuse from the batterys. It is black, about 1.5 inches in diameter and is an in line fuse with the main ground cable.

It is not a fuse in a fuse box anywhere. It is an in line fuse, in the ground cable.

Was that enough to confuse you?
