Tahoe Q6 Blown Fuse - newbie help

[TX_1971]

I have had my 2007 Q6 for about two months. I have had no major issues to speak of. This weekend on the lake I tried to use the 12volt outlet to air up a tube.

The moment I powered on the air pump the raido shut off not to mention the air pump didn't work. I assume I blew a fuse but I don't have the owners manual to pinpoint the right one. Any assistance would be apprecaited.

The pump may have drawn too much power and blew the fuse. I did this using an inverter and a pump hooked to the 12 v acc socket. Also check the back of the
12 V socket and make sure the wires are secured properly. The fuse should be under the driver side gauge panel.

Just pull all the fuses until you find the blown fuse. There are only about 12, so it shouldn't take too long. The only thing on the boat with a memory is the radio, and it's lost power anyway, so killing power to anything else won't hurt.

Had the same problem using an air compressor to ait the trailer tires. It is a 10 amp fuse on the bottom left side. It's the bottom fuse or the one up from the bottom. It is a regular size fuse, not a mini.
