I did some wire tracing this morning with my first cup of coffee.

As far as I can tell, the two batteries in the coach are wired together to the charger. At least, I'm assuming (I know, I know) since one battery's wires go into a loom and up and over the coach to what looks like the charging area. The other is right there, so that one is easy.

This is the charging situation right now.

this is the charger being used. Obviously not ideal, but it works.

charger plugged in.


my questions are- where does the house bank normally live, and where do the wires that run from the house system enter the engine compartment? I'm trying to get back to wiring the isolator.

Does anyone have, or would anyone be willing to-take a picture of their engine compartment and label the items so that I can visualize the set up?

more to this coming soon, and I think I discovered why there were trailer wires wired into the engine compartment.

You guys are gonna love this!!
