I am told there is a 1 amp fuse behind the master control panel ..(electronic control panel) situated above the door ...  how can I remove this to check the inline fuse???

currently no display on it   ... as had an electrical disaster with the main battery....

I currently have removed the plastic cover over the buttons OK.

But the electronic board and display are held ind with a couple of screws...   removed now    but the unit seems attached behind ..... some what reluctant to yank it right out .  

Any clues ??? 

 Make: Coachman Model: Platinum Pastiche

Model Key: 470 Year: 2012

    Hi Keith,

    I wondered if you can help? I have a coachman laser 2016 and the control panel keeps fading. I have brought a replacement panel but I am struggling to get the face off the panel. I am reluctant to force it.  I can see from this old post you have successfully removed yours. Please could you tell me the technique?

     

    many thanks

    how does an almost 3 year old post that was last replied to 6 months ago become a recent post?

    Hi Keith,

    When you said no display, was there absolutely nothing, or did you have a backlit screen only with no data displayed or was there nothing at all.

    Also there is some resistance to removing the screen cover, did you experience the same.

     

    Thanks

    There are 4 small stiff clips, 2 on each side of the outer cover of the panel.

    You will have to use a screw driver to carefully ease the 2 clips from each side of the panel and it takes care and courage not to break or damage it!!!

     Good luck
