Unhappy 1996 Fleetwood Southwind Storm 27R Chevy

I desperately Need a chassis and house battery diagram. I'm stuck at a reststop on 95 bc I had a mobile mechanic replace the batteries and he wired them all wrong. all of them are dead right now. I cant find it...something is always off on the schematics I have come across. its either a Ford one, not enough or too many wires compared to what I have Infront of me...I'm ripping my blue mo-fohawk out of my head! also Heyyy I'm Topher, solo rider on a mission to hit all 48 states I left NJ (home) and first stop was Connecticut. been here a week and was just on my way to Rhode island and my batteries died...engine and shore power do nothing. if either are hooked up everything works but cut the power then nothing. thank god I put solar on... but I have yet to get that hooked up for trickle charge and the original one is shot...its a 96 after all. 138k miles. anywho my and my kitty Gizmo are brand new to this. I'm towing a 15 civic behind me. both of which were hit in the same exact spot so both are mean muggin.. anywho. diagram for batteries PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. idk what else to do. don't have money to get paid help.

HELP!!! Batteries Not Charging

this is my 2nd post.
I'm stuck stranded with only 100 to my name. I cant get the RV battery to charge while running or with shore connection. idk what to do and the batteries are fairly new within a year and I literally just went for my first trip. more so I'm getting away from abusive family and "friend" relationships. I really need guidance and a wire diagram for the batteries for a 96 Fleetwood Southwind storm, model 27R with Chevy engine. idk why I cant find it. mobile mechanic who put them in had no clue what he was doing and it hasn't worked right since. please help my first post has been unanswered.

Are you talking about the battery that starts the engine? or the battery that runs the "house" 12V loads and inverter if it has one? We call those the chassis battery and the house battery for clarity.



Charging while driving, and while plugged in are different things if it's the chassis battery. Could be related if it's the house battery not charging.

yeah, that's nice, but to get help you have to answer questions.
