The 12v power socket failed today - and I can't find a fuse for that alone.  It is in the same bit of plastic casing as a 13amp socket which is still working.  It's a bit of an issue as I run the TV off the 12v socket and have done for years so of course the mains cable is nowhere to be found.  :(

The socket has failed.  Everything works in the wrecked caravan socket :(  

Of course I know where to fix that in the Swift!

pippa, it's possible a wire has come loose behind the socket...as the socket houses a 230v connection as well, you'll need to ensure the mains is disconnected prior to removing the housing panel.

You should have a bank of fuses, one of which will protect the 12v socket. Check them all one by one..

good luck.
