Waeco will run on 240v but not 12 v
Permalink  

Sorry if this one has come up before.. I put Waeco in the car with engine running and plugged it in.. wont  go
Runs as usual off the 240 v lead

have checked the fuse in 12 v lead pug and it is good

I see on a search that the poly fuse may have gone 

any ideas fellow GNs 

?

Hopefully the pic of the circuit board will help to identify if my Waeco is Vera or Verb

The compressor is 12V so I would conclude that it is not a big problem.
Cheers,
Peter
