New Coach Batteries for Jayco Melbourne 2010

[bamagal]

Chalk this down to a senior moment! Trying to hook up two new coach batteries. When Gary disconnected the old ones, he thought he had the "picture" in his head on how to reconnect to the new batteries. Well, it didn't happen and he's stuck. Could anyone having a Melbourne go out and take a picture of the batteries and how they're attached? That's all we need... a good picture! Or a PDF of the same would work toooooo.......

Here's a diagram for two 12 volt batteries and also two six volt batteries.

Thanks for the diagrams, but there's a little more going on then just the simple automotive-type connect. Gary should have drawn himself a guide before he disconnected the old batteries, then he wouldn't be in this dilemma. Were that it was this simple, BFlinn 181. When Gary gets home from work, I'm sure he will be more descriptive of the problem and take over from me. We need a Jayco Melbourne owner.......

I figured it out! There were a total of 4 cables from the motorhome into the battery tray area. One was the ground, and all others went to the positive terminals. Next time, I'll label wires before I remove them on future projects. Can't trust memory anymore!
