Hey guys, I was never able to figure this out. Ragen has now been purchased by Genesis so they don't really exist in the same way. I will try calling Genesis to see if they can help but I doubt they will be any more helpful than Ragen was...
Anyways, the neighbors tree fell on our trailer so I paid the repair company extra to install the mounts for 4 solar panels while they rhino sprayed the new roof. I bought 4 panels and still have the inverter I bought like 5 years ago. I am motivated to install but still can't figure out where the pre-wired solar plug runs to. I went through all the harness, looked under the trailer, under the fridge, near the furance and refrigerator etc. I can't find any 8awg wire like the solar port has on the roof.
I can buy one of those probe and tone kits but will it work through the plywood on the roof? If so what exactly will it tell me? Where to cut a hole in the roof to find the factory wires?
Another thought is to just ditch the solar port on the roof and run some 8awg down though the rerigerator vent then across to where the electric panel and all the other wiring is and install the inverter there (there is already 4awg run to the power inverter I can probably tap into for a retrun feed). Is it ok to somehow run a wire under the refrigerator vent?
