replacing BCC CB-115

[97PaceArrow]

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the RV world & have MINIMAL mechanical & electrical repair/diagnosis experience. I have a 1997 Pace Arrow 35J on a Ford Chassis with a 460 motor. Just bought a replacement BCC board & I'm confused with the replacement instructions. It says "When installing REV P board it is unnecessary to connect the ignition relay mounted in the breaker box. Do not remove relay and the orange wire is no longer needed. Connect one black wire of AUX start relay to breaker box".

I don't see an orange wire anywhere under my hood where this control board it located.

HELP!

Your '97 already has a board in it that has consolidated the ignition relay onto the board. This change was made on the older CB-200 board (prior to the series CB-115 board). You won't find any orange wire.

Simply move all current connections from the old board to the new board.

Take pictures and make drawings to ensure things are put back correctly.

I have a friend of mine helping get this motorhome back to full working & livable order. He thought it would be best to get some answers before taking a chance on frying a $200 board. Thanks again!
