1999 London Aire 5th Wheel

Good Morning,

I am helping out with a 1999 London Aire 5th Wheel and we can't seem to find the battery disconnect switch, if it has one. I tried looking on the Forums for some info but could not find anything and the Newmar COM_NET link did not have any info either. Seeing if anyone has any info on this?

Thanks

On trailers and 5ers , a disconnect switch/relay is RARE , particularly in a vintage unit.
Manufacturer would expect owner to disconnect cable at the battery.

Thanks good to know, I guess I have been working on too many new trailers and 5th wheels lately.

Newmar made the high end of trailers. The London Aire 5er was the top of the Newmar line in 5ers so I would expect that it had top of the line features like a disconnect. Marine battery disconnects have existed for many decades, so I would think you would find one on that rig. I have been wrong before but it's worth a good look.
Maybe 007 has an owners guide for that model?

I looked at the owner's manual it doesn't mention a battery disconnect and I looked all over for one. Most likely will just install one.

That's good that you have the owners manual. The one for our coach is pretty detailed but still doesn't cover everything.
