Wiring mess found behind shower wall

I pulled the shower wall off to move and install a new shower diverter and found the main wire harness. There was really nothing wrong with it working but what a mess. I cleaned it up the best I could.

    I just saved mine for fire starter.
  • That is a minor disaster. Nice job on the cleanup.

    Should have seen the several messes in my 2016 Bounder. I understand the wire looms are made for several different models but just stuffing wires in the cavity hoping don't rub through till the warranty runs out is criminal IMO. I really liked the two water lines in a three inch hole through the floor pulled so tight it was a job to get some split duct around the pex, in two places. The plus was that they didn't bother to fill at least three holes, that I have found so far, with foam so at least I could identify a potential problem.

    Then there is the propane lines just tossed over the frame rubbing and not tied down and same with the jack lines. Or the front left jack mounting bolt so the bolt cut through the Ford wiring harness split duct just nicking a wire when I found it.

    I got more but we have all been there and got the t-shirt.

  • You should see the mess around my water pump..LOL.
  • "Say Boss.....where can I find wire ties?"

    "Wire ties......you do NOT have time to bundle those wires up! You are paid 'piece-mill' and we have 20 units to move out the door today. Wire ties..HA.
    Just run the wires and stuff them in where ever you can!"
  • I should have taken a pic. That is positively neat compared to the rats nest under my fridge where the panel and converter are.
    Nice job cleaning it up!
