Most "owners" manuals aren't worth the paper they are printed on. There is usually nothing on how your rig was wired, plumbed, anything other then the basic stuff.
If you need info on your appliances, most makers have PDFs on their web-sites.
If you need repair help, see the RV Repair and Maintenance Manual by Bob Livingston.
Amen to that, brother. I can somewhat understand that the camper manufacturers rely on their component suppliers to furnish their own manuals for each appliance etc. What I don't understand is why the camper manufacturers don't furnish basic information such as LOCATION of various components such as water pumps, breaker panels, inverters, transfer switches etc for these rigs. Sometimes it takes more time to FIND a component than it does to fix it. On my Jayco, the transfer switch is located under the bed, with a wooden "case" built around it. Having to trace water lines and electrical wires and gas lines to find something in your camper is ridiculous, especially if you are on the road and need to fix something. The generic owners manuals are pretty useless as far as maintenance goes.
