Re: Replacing rv fridge with residential fridge

I have installed a 10 Cu ft. residential in my trailer, an '87 34V. For me, it was easy as I had made some modifications previously that lent itself to ease of installation. To begin with, my refrigerator opening is 24", so that helped. Second, I had previously relocated and redesigned the cont...

Re: Water heater wiring diagram

Trailer Blue wire goes to the light in the control panel. Pretty sure.

So, for my money, trailer yellow and blue connect to WH brown. .
White trailer connects to WH green and Blue.

FYI, European standards use brown and blue for DC +/-.

Re: Water heater wiring diagram

Please forgive me if I'm being Captain Obvious, but confirming the white is ground is easily done with an ohm meter. The ground on the three prong AC outlet is also DC ground. You could do that or check white to the frame, skin or worse case, the ground busbar behind the power panel.

Re: Water heater wiring diagram

The three wires that were already in place one is +12VDC from the control panel switch, one is ground and the third is a return +12VDC that turns on the light in the control panel. I believe the reasoning behind the +12VDC return is a troubleshooting measure - if the light is lit, you know there is ...
