    The manuals by the TRAILER manufacturer is generic, covers multiple "models", contains no wiring diagrams or even instructions on tanks, water system, electrical..

    If you need manuals for appliances, those were simply included as loose papers inside the original manual for the trailer.

    For appliance manuals you need to find the make and model number and do a Internet search.. Most of the appliance manuals can be easily found on the Internet as PDF files once you have make and model number.

      Gdetrailer I just bought a 1975 Terry and was wondering how my water system works. There is a switch immediately to the left when you enter the trailer and when on sounds like a pump? air compressor? (very loud!). There was a 12V pump in one of the cupboards so I am thinking previous owners may have pressurized their system with it? Any tips on how to troubleshoot or even know what's there would be awesome. Super new to this!

  • Wiring diagrams, I don't think RV manufacturers even make them for their own usage.
  • HI Did you ever find one? I would LOVE to see your if you still have it...the camper that is. I"ll have the exact one tomorrow!
  • My experience with wiring diagrams even on very high end units is they are vague and change without being updated.
    My best results have been removing the drawers on cabinets and seeing the wires running along the floors to different appliances and lighting.

    Ceiling wiring can be tough but once I had to remove the AC and found some wiring that helped my situation.
    Any specific issue that you are dealing with?
