Running a Cable from the "One Place" Electric Bay XC Chassis

Tried off and on for three days to run a cable from the electrical bay to the One Place. I can see the base of my bed and its wiring from the electrical bay but not foreword of that. I can kind of see the path another cable takes, but even with a plumbers scope I can't see what's in the way of my wire guide.

They must keep this area closed up tight and foamed any space. I can see some foam in areas but the scope is not very good at giving me a picture of the pathways.

Any suggestions? The wire is a flat telephone like wire that goes to my Progressive industries surge protector outbox.

If you have an inverter with a control panel, there should be a flat wire running from your one place to the inverter in the electrical compartment. On my Journey, I removed the one place and routed a wire under the shower and vanity and under a storage bench. There was a cable opening directly above the elec comp so was realatively simple. My Dimensions inverter used a telephone cable - you could consider using the existing cable as a pull cable to install a new one along with the progressive cable. I doubt you will be successful getting there using a fish as there is a lot going on along the route particularly under the shower. That said, it would probably be worth calling Winn if for suggestions if you can't get past a point. I had to remove a section of the bottom panel of the vanity. You can also see where cables are routed along the path by removing a bottom drawer if there is one on the path. I have found that it is relatively simple to route new wiring through the coach once you have figured out where you can get access - which is definitely the hard part. Good luck, not sure if this is helpful since there is a different solution for every floorplan,

I successfully ran a cable from my one place panel to the electrical bay on my 34H for my Onan EC30 remote start system. I started at the one place panel, removed the hamper, ran the cable under the sink cabinet, under the shower (gaining access thru the vent under the shower) and then found a chase to the electrical bay.

My suggestion is to start from the other end, from under the shower, and you should be able to follow some other cabling to the electrical bay.

Good luck!

Sorry for the late reply, I will give it another try soon. I could see my fish under the shower from the sewer bay with my plumbers scope. I did no think to pull the shower vent.
