Why won’t it turn on
The RSE Southern Cross 52 may not turn on due to the following reasons:
1. Power Supply Issues – Ensure the red wire (12V Positive) is connected to a constant 12V DC supply without voltage drop. The black wire (12V Neg/Earth) should have a proper ground connection.
2. Auto Shut Down Circuit – The yellow wire (12V Ign/Switched) must be correctly connected to a switched ignition source, alternator D+ connection, or stop light circuit (for caravans).
3. Fuse or Relay Problem – Check the main loom containing the relay and fuse holder for any blown fuses or loose connections.
4. Control Unit Issue – Ensure the main control box is switched on.
5. Technical Fault – If none of the above resolve the issue, contact RSE for further assistance.
