Hi Raymondo
If your 08 is the same build as my last van an 09 Nuevo the electric units should be in the wardrobe unit under the removable plywood lid.
Pull the draw forward and remove the lid, my van had a side door located in the shower room,much easier to get to the fuse box, PSU from there.
It's the same set up as my current van a 08 Sigma.

thankyou, found it, amidst an absolute rats nest of yards of surplus wiring no access from shower so its empty the wardrobe and peer into the gloom of the space behind the heater (torch required) if I need to reset a trip  - very convenient!

I know its a small motorhome but surely some where more convenient could have been found - under the driverside bench alongside the battery box?

Just had a closer look by the cold light of day apparently no trips just automotive blade type fuses.

Is there any convenient way of removing the drawer? even with the drawer fully out they fuses are still behind the back end of the drawer  - and so cannot be seen  - if the drawer was completely removed (a)I could see what I was doing and (b) I wouldnt have to empty the wardrobe

Hi Ray
The PSU and fuse box aren't in the ideal location I agree ,however the spaces underneath the benches are limited enough without packing these units underneath them.
I have a head torch, this keeps the hands free for rummaging about underneath

Just read your last post Ray, the consumer unit should be on the back wall near the water heater.

Not in mine! its on the bulkhead between the wardrobe and the bench seat right at the front where even if you fully open the drawer it still obscures about 3 of the fuses, you can feel them and could get them out with needle nose pliers but you cant really see them.

If the drawer came right out things would be so much easier but it looks like you would have to unscrew the runners - -actually that might still be the best way to do it.

It would have been such a simple no cost thing to have put it somewhere more accessable when they were building it.

On the drawer, if it has runner wheels you should be able to tip and lift it out. If not unscrewing the side screws is the only way to remove it.
