Batteries and some big breakers are usually at the rear corner.
I would ask factory, even though we haven't, but we didn't do our own.
They should have info on best take off, as almost all RVers tow a vehicle.
There may even be a wire or fuse specified for it on later ones. Someone here know?
The plug has seven pins and most seem to use a 7 pin round to four pin round cable and plug for the little four pin round receptacle.
Seems there are three wires available for something.
It would seem you could wire from battery or fuse on towed to a five pin? receptacle, and a 7 pin to five pin cable and adapter plug.
Be simpler than fishing the single wire out from the grill on your knees and pluging into the dangling wire from the coach. Maybe the three extra wires are for electric brakes, I don't know. We use air brakes.
