Hey everyone, can someone help me out with this question. My camper batteries both tested good on my 2013 hawk. However my battery indicator and water indicator do not show any sign of life. Also on that same area the water pump switch isn’t working. Everything else seems to be OK. I can’t find a fuse That is bad. I am headed down the coast of Baja tomorrow and I’m in San Diego today. I’m not good with electrical issues so I am reaching out for some crowdsourcing help. Can someone let me know what they think might be going on?
 
Fuses good and two items not working? I'd guess a bad connection. Maybe a wire fell from the switch panel? Pretty easy to check.
 
Unfortunately not so easy. All the wires are in place. The trouble started when a battery terminal nut was loose during a long drive to the coast.
 
Update: I did find a fuse that went bad. All set for Baja. Thanks wtw. Please delete this dumb post from the public record.
 
Which fuse was it? I'm leaving for Baja soon also. No problems right now. I'll wave if I see you.

How come?

It's a nice little Mexican fishing village that has some beautiful beaches. It's got a protected anchorage for sailboats and others traveling the Sea of Cortez. 25 miles off the main road with about 19 being unpaved down a steep hill and rough enough to discourage many travelers. Fishing is not so great due to over gil netting, but it's a nice place to camp. I used to be all by myself there but thanks to i overlander, it's full of people now. Not many services there, but there is a small tienda and a couple of small beach restaurants where the fish tacos are good. They are more recent additions.

What he said.. hard to get to and therefore when we were there only one other truck camper and thats it.. Little beach restaurant is wonderful, decent snorkeling.. Its just quiet and the 25 miles of dirt to get there definitely keep many away, its pretty rough..

Vic.. have you been to Baja? So many places to explore.. we prefer to get south ASAP as we are trying to escape winter.. We spent 3 weeks there the last two years, but skipping this year.. missing it big time.

Have not been to Baja or much of the deep south west yet. We love Utah in the fall, and are wondering about deeper south for the winter months once we retire.
