    Hello all, Trying to get a Renogy DC-DC battery charger configured in my Hawk. This Renogy requires a 12V+ feed for sense (I know there are others that do not require this - well too late for that). I was kind of surprised to find out that the 7-pin round trailer plug at the hitch has an...

    Hey all, trying to wire up an auxiliary fuse box for some low power accessories. Fans, radio, USB ports, etc.. Currently, I have the aux fuse box wired directly to the battery. Everything is on unless the battery cables aren’t hooked up. Obviously, that’s no good and will drain my starter...

    Identify this part?

    This thing is not on the GD website, not listed in parts. I'm pretty sure this is a circuit breaker/ distribution bar. Where can I find out more about it, like the breaker ratings? I'm really hoping not to take it all apart to trace out all my wires.

    12V question. Can anyone tell me what this is?

    This red thing is hooked up to the positive battery cable. It looks like it was attached to the frame at one time but rusted off. When I moved it a little bit, I could hear a clunking noise from somewhere towards the back of the trailer. Within a few days after that my battery went dead, despite...

    I do not have power on the front 12V output below the radio when the ignition is on or off. The Ford manual suggests a fuse in the engine compartment but adding one made no difference. Anyone dealt with this problem already?

    Adding a fan to the Bedroom Vent

    We would like to add a fan to our bedroom roof vent in our 2011 Jayflight 23FB. Does anyone know if Jayco routinely pre-wires the bedroom vent with 12V wiring, in case someone wants to upgrade their vent at a later date with a fan?
