Where is the charge solenoid
You don't need long jumper cables
You just need to jump the heavy terminals together on the solenoid
To connect the two systems
I have done it numerous times on other RVs
For people that didn't know
You are right. I'll see if that works. It is a long run of #10 from the solenoid/starter to the house though. Solenoid is up front with the engine battery.
With #10 wire i would connect the terminals and wait a few minutes before hitting the start switch
Let it transfer a few amps forward to the weak chassis battery and mitigate the surge and the voltage drop from the house battery
