My 1972 Revcon had an empty space there was an original non-working buzzbox but it was disconnected.
Pretty sure Revcon and GMC used the same early converter.
In the hole I found three sets of wires;
One is obviously AC, i connected the AC side of my converter to it.
The other pair was hot to the battery, i connected that,
The third is a heavy pair of wires with a smaller third green wire.
This set of wires appears to be AC - (with a third leg for ground)
That one is the mystery-
As i connected it everything works the way it's supposed to, the converter provides DC and charges the battery, etc
The generator provides power to a plug at the rear where the external power cord is connected. The Generator also provides 12V to the batteries
Yes, I realize it could be anything a previous owner added, removed or left behind, but so far this coach appears to be VERY original. It has very low mileage and hardy anything has been touched.
And there is no documentation.
But I'm a decent electrician and if I get a few good WAGS it will send me in the right direction.

It's gonna take a lot of Adderall to get this thing right.
