We had a similar issue with the same fuse. It ended just being a loose slot where the fuse plugged in. I took some needle nose pliers and pinched the fuse slots and all was well.

will reply to my own thread unplugged all wires to awning switches behind monitor panel all is working now Except the awning (obviously) has to be a pinched wired in the awning

On my unit the awning wires come from one corner at the top, run down the back channel (covered by plastic snap in cover) to the bottom and then up one arm to the motor (again covered by snap in plastic cover).
If you can get the awning out, you can remove the covers and have full access to the wiring runs. There are several locations the wiring can easily get pinched.

Hope this helps
