12 - VoLT D c SYSTEM
Many of your RV components including the light fixtures, water pump, motors and appli-
ances run on 12V electricity.
• The converter supplies 12V power when your RV is connected to external power. The
converter will also charge the batteries in most situations.
• The batteries supply 12V power when your RV is NOT connected to external power.
The Tow Vehicle Alternator supplies 12V power when the 7-Way Wire Harness is con-
•
nected, and the tow vehicle engine is running.
This runs the components needed for travel including, the brake lights, turn signals, brakes,
running lights and the breakaway switch. In addition, the 7-Way Wire Harness provides a
common ground and a charge line to your auxiliary battery.
12 - VoLT FUSE PANEL
• The label inside the 12V fuse panel indicates the fuse sizes, positions and components
powered. Annually, at the beginning of the camping season, inspect each 12V fuse and
replace as needed.
