on a 2008 chassis on the tuscany
i have a wire that fell out from under the dash
its labeled BB J 1939 with two wires and a delphi watertight connector, wire colors are yellow and one green, what i found odd is the other wiring harness connectors under the dash are not water tight/waterpack typpe connections, just your normal plug in an snap type.


i have searched my huge data base of wire colors and ends and its just a mystery

thanks

Probably for something that you don't have in your coach.

well yes that did cross my mind, but soon afterwards i found a similar albeit smaller connector with a cap on it to keep the ends clean, it was also on the same bb j 1939 series numbers on the wires, but it was some 20" inches from the other one.

i tried aux key on....no voltage or less than .01 volts
key on/engine off ...no voltage
key on/engine running...no voltage
key off... no voltage

i just like to know what the dead wires were or supposed to be hooked to

i have a green and white one out back near the rear driver leveling jack, that says house on it and it has been hanging free since the coach was new. Even Damon didn't know what it was for

Maybe slap a signal tracer on it and follow it around????

Not too hard to find a fellow RVer that caries one...
They are about $80 new and a lot less used.

Most RV manufacturers will run wires for all the options and leave them disconnected if not needed. But tracing them might give you an idea.

the bbj 1934 line is used for the data link for things like silverleaf, etc
