Might have been a silly move but I took the cigarette lighter but off the end of the 12v cable for our aldi special TV and replaced it with a 12v caravan plug so I could plug it in next to the aerial. I plugged it in and the fuse went. (I hope)

2 questions then

If I got the wires the wrong way round have I killed the TV? (I am pretty sure I didn't.. I was very careful but had to assume it was wired centre +)

Anyone know where the flipping fuse box is????.?? 2002 autotrail dakota

You can buy an adaptor. I know it is too late now! They are normally +ve in the centre so hopefully it is the fuse. They are often 10A for the accessory socket if that helps

Believe it or not somebody posted a picture of one of those the evening after I did the bad news :(

Thanks for the tip on the fuse.
