7 pin trailer/toad wiring problem Workhorse chassis

[rogerdodger]

If I hook up a test light to the running light pin, the voltage goes from 12v to zero. Maybe a bad ground. Where can I get a wiring diagram. I have a 2006 Fleetwood Southwind 32V.

Problem solved. Umbilical from motorhome to toad setscrews for ground wire loose inside connectors, both ends.

The 7 Pole RV Electrical Plug

When I got my current Towed we had to install a Remco LP-1 Lube Pump.

The install went well, testing of the unit in the shop went well, The install on the motor home went well and again bench test was good.. Hooked the car to the motor home,, No work... Blew fuse, More than once.

Finally found that the POWER lead in one end was not properly trimed, so the assembler, instead of re-trimming, just coiled the escess a turn and when he slid the cover over the plug it sliced the insulation off the wire and shorted it out... Nice job.. Must have been a Monday job.


Story told me by a commercial tech.. They ordered a set of jumper cables from Motorola.. Out of the 8 cables they had SIXTEEN shorted connectors. One on each end of each cable.
