I guess the first question is was the batteries removed when in storage and did you guys recently re-install the batteries?
The RV BATTERIES are SO EASY to get installed wrong mostly because of the BATTERY cable wire colors being different from Automotive wire colors...
Something going to ground somewhere causing your smoking cables... If the START BATTERY has shorted core cells it should have tripped some fuse or 12VDC breaker somewhere before smoking wires????
These are obvious comments here - MOTOHOMES and larger RV's have different symptoms than regular stand along trailers have.
