How I found my Transfer switch (And almost passed out in shock when it was there)
I envisioned the wires from the INLET (Shore inlet on the rear Driver's side) to the Power distribution panel (Roughly the center of the coach, in a hall wall the wall is shared between a hall and the half bath) and then from the Generator to the same Distro panel.
They cross. .In the cabinet under the half bath counter. about 2 feet behind the distro panel..
I opened the doors and noticed the "Bottom shelf" was blocked off.. Removed the panel (2 screws) and .. There i was.. SHOCK. .THe most logical place.
(WHy Shock. Well heavy (50 amp) WIre is not cheap. and they put it were they could use the LEAST wire.. Not the MOST as in so many other RV's)
