Batteries

Does my 2014 Tiffin Open Road 36LA have 6v or 12v house batteries? And, how many? How often should they be changed?

Thanks in advance....

Count the number of caps on each battery. 3 is a 6 volt, 6 is a 12 volt.

You're trolling - right??? You have been on this forum for six years, made 60 posts, and still don't know what kind of batteries you have? Or don't know how to tell the difference or how to count them?? COME ON MAN!!!

From one of their 60 posts dated August 2019.


We’ve had 3 diesels and 3 gassers. Now driving a 2014 36LA we bought used from Tiffin dealer in Memphis. We are nearly full time and happy as clams.

You should have at least 2 - 6volt batteries as standard equipment. There are also lots of battery options , so you could have many more. They are getting close to their end of life. If you have AGM batteries, you should be good for a couple of more years. Check the coach build data sheet or take a look in the battery compartment.
