Hello. I'm a new owner and new to this site and have a couple questions. I am trying to install a Progressive EMS system in my new Winnebago Micro Minnie 2106FBS and don't know where to locate the converter or the power supply to splice. (My buddy is an electrician and will be helping me install). I want to put the EMS under the stove. Can anybody provide some help/suggestions/pictures/advice for this project? I haven't been able to find anything online anywhere. We leave next week for a 3 week trip and can't get it into the shop before we leave to have it installed. They have no appointments available. Thank you for the help in advance,

Follow the power cord into the trailer. The first box it hits is likely the power center. The EMS goes before the power center.

Is there an easy way to do this? Do I start where the exterior power plug in is on the outside of the rig and then trace from there? If the cord is not visible how do I pick up the trail? Thank you for your help

just follow the cord that you plug into shore power when camping and install near the box that cord goes into

You can get a remote display for PI EMS and mount it anywhere you'd like to monitor what's going on

It depends on how your trailer is constructed. You may need to take some things apart to access the cord entrance and power center.

On mine its behind the 120v breaker panel, under the fridge. Look for the 120v breaker panel.

Hi !

Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

Try to trace the power cable after it enters the RV and install the EMS wherever you can past that point! Keep her between the ditches!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!
