The Lazy Daze is a 31IB 1997.

The enclosed panelboard holds the 30amp breaker and two more breakers. Thepanel melted and will not support the 30amp breaker.  The submitted picture isn't what I'm asking about.

"The Lazy Daze is a 31IB 1997."

Thirty foot I can believe... the 31' models didn't come out until much later!   :o

The enclosed panelboard is what can be seen in this photo.

this site shows what I am asking about. the large breakers are fastened to the panelboard. It is a separate component.

If I am understanding this, you burned up the module in the AC distribution section that has the AC bus bar that the breakers snap into.  The word "fuse" in the OP was a bit misleading.  You likely have a Parallax/Magnatek 6345 or 7345 power distribution center.  Poking around a bit online I could not find anyone selling this part.  You may have to replace the entire power distribution center.  This would be the ideal time to replace the converter power supply with a much better "smart charger".  One of the best things I did when we had an LD was upgrade the converter with a Progressive Dynamics 9270.

Thanks Art! I agree with your idea. The 1997 LD 30IB now belongs to my cousin who lives just down the road from me. I now own a 2001 LD 30IB. The original converter was way too loud for me as I am a light sleep so I did replace the converter on my 2001. My cousin is one who likes to piece things together. I'll share your comment with him and hopefully he will listen to your advise.
