Designer 35RLTS and Jayco Talk...Thanks Frank!!

There are two 8-10 gauge wires that have crimped terminals on each end that are for a second battery, but the 16-18 gauge wires continue up into the structure. Those are for solar.

If I can recall, they are about 16-18 gauge wires one is black and white and the other is red and white. Any ideas?

I was told they are for installing a second battery.

Yes, the Designer is going away and they are making a higher end 5th wheel in its place. Can't remember the name, though?

Bummer, I may have found something made in china on our awesome 5vr.
Went out to start springerizing and noticed that the front decal is peeling off from the top down. It appears the snow sliding off of the front cap stuck on the edges and peeled the decals back. Guess I'll call tech support for guidance. Anyone else have any peeling?

Re; Roof Top Satellite location ... on our 2008 35RLTS, there's a white plug in the ceiling just above the small return of the "L" couch. I was told that is where the roof top satellite wiring is located ...

Just thinking out loud...I would assume those solar wires in the battery box the logical place for those to terminate up top may be in and around the roof vent in the bedroom since that is already prewired for a second AC and/or a Fantastic Fan...

I've also wondered about the satelite prep...

On mine I know outside right below wheren I plug in my cable TV cable there is also a "plug" to plug in a portable satellite dish that you set outside...then inside you would plug your satellite receiver into the staellite "plug" which should be right next to where the TV cables are hokked up (in my case they wwere located behind the DVD player)...

As for a satellite on top of the roof not to sure about that...

Those wires are the pre wiring for solar. Not sure where they terminate up top though. They should have a little sticker label on them somewhere.

No pink stuff in our for a month. We're looking forward to our next weekend getaway in mid-april if we can wait that long.

Just a quick question for anyone here: Have you gotten any better technical skematics of your unit from Jayco? Layouts of the mechanicals or electrical? Just curious.
