Thermo King Tripac APU
When my son tried to start his Apu yesterday, the system had no power.
After looking in the battery area for a fuse or loose connection without success,
he then called Thermo King in Ocala, Fl.
They told him there is a 50A fuse located near the back of the unit near the alternator &
exhaust. Supposedly the heat in this area deteriorates the fuse and eventually it goes bad.
The APU on his T700 is located under the passengers side fairing, so you must remove the passengers steps
and bolts on the fairing to remove then remove the covers on the APU.
He found the fuse to be bad and after a taxi ride to Autozone the fuse was replaced.
The APU is alive and well again.
Including the taxi ride fix was $30 probably $100+ at the dealer.
Hopefully there is not another issue causing this to happen, but for now all is well with the APU.

Hope this helps someone if they are in a similar situation.

T700
