KC Dave, Glad you found the problem. The electric tongue jack I have recommends that you use a dedicated 30A slow blow fuse directly to the positive terminal on the battery. Is your electric jack a factory install? Mine will occasionally burn out a regular 30A fuse. I've replaced the original 3AG style fuse with the automotive style (ATC). I have a separate fuse just for the jack but the ATC style is not available in slow-blow. I'm considering a circuit breaker.
It's possible that your electric tongue jack burned out the battery fuse. I would recommend putting the jack on it's own fuse. I love my electric jack for a no sweat setup. Ray
