Battery connection for Rockwood 2514g

I forgot how to hook up my battery on my popup. The red says + so i put it on the positive side of the battery. The black says - but the white doesn't say anything. Anybody knows where do i put it + or - ?

Thank you

    A VOM will help. Put the VOM positive lead on the + post with the red cable hooked up. Put the VOM negative lead on the Black cable and if you see 12V+ on the meter then that is the negative cable. If meter reads zero then test the white cable.

    White is ALMOST always the ground wire on an RV. The black and red most likely BOTH connect to the positive side.
