Without the switch, you would have to pull the ground cable from your battery bank.

More than likely you would have battery shut off switches in the battery compartment.

There is plenty of circuit breaker to protect things.

These are the replacement disconnect switches I bought and installed in my '04 Camelot. Work great and was able to use existing screw hole locations.

Yep, exact same ones I bought. Very close to OEM.

Just to end the post and thank everyone for their input, it was the house battery cut off switch that fried. I got a new one from Amazon and a spare for the chassis battery cut off switch if and when that one fails. The switch is a carbon copy of the one that burned up except it is made in China of course. The 17 year old switch was American made. So sad we have lost so much manufacturing. We use to kick butt in that area.

The switch killed our trip only because I wasn’t very good at locating the problem. Thanks to you all, I have a better understanding of how current flows in this coach.
