Hi all, Trying to help my dad identify some wiring in his coach for a project. Manufacturer hasn't been any help so I thought I'd try here. He has two wires that we are trying to identify the w...

Seems like the wrong approach to me. Send him to the store and buy an cheap digital voltmeter. Measure the voltage at the refer with the comperssor running, no shore power and battery partially discharged. If it meets mfg specs then wiring is OK. Next repeat but measure at the battery terminals to make sure batteries are OK. Better yet have the batteries load tested. What did he find?
Otherwise measure the distance for new wires and use a wiring calculator to find the wire ga needed for the new wires. And go directly from the refer to the battery with a fuse unless there is some really heavy wire nearby that can be used.
