I have been corresponding with a new member, amphibian62 is having an issue and is requesting our help.

Here is the latest email.

Dear Bill,
Thank you for responding .
Below are my questions and will appreciate your input.
The pictures turned out very large .
Sorry about that. I tried to reduce them but it hasn't worked out well

Toggle switches:
On the dash can you tell me which toggle switches are stock and after market?
Right







Fuse box:
Under the hood the last two fuses are marked as to what they are for. The rest are unmarked. Do you know what they are for?
See picture below.



Breaker box below:

When we plug the outside 30 amp cord into the socket we have no power.
There are two breaker boxes where the cord is stored in the outside compartment and there is a another box inside on the left side of closet. Which breakers should we throw to get power.



Fuse box in closet.



We have a water storage tank in the rear right side of the moble home that is now frozen.
Should I remove the tank or try to thaw it out in place?
Should I remove the pump and try to plug the outgoing hose?
Becasue I imagine the pump is frozen too.

Can you tell me how to turn on the inverter?
Bill thank you very much. This is quite a task for you.
If you like you can phone.

And this is what it looks like today.







I have invited this new member to respond here too. He has also provided his data tag and vin# to our project.

His last email to me from yesterday said...

Thanks again for your input. We have joined the site.
What I need is a manual. Any ideas on that?

If anyone can contribute to this discussion...

I can only help a little.....On my '78 panel:

The two-way toggle switch to left of Onan panel is
the right/left fuel tank selector.

I don't have the switch at 1 o'clock position to the ignition switch.

Hole to left of clock contains rotary switch for left wiper motor.

Rectangle cutout is for lighted "wipers" signage.

Lower rotary switch is for right wiper motor.

Momentary toggle on side panel is washer pump.

I don't have the switch below lighter socket.....

I don't have breaker/disconnect box in cord storage box....just a duplex receptacle that's protected by breaker on interior closet wall.

Addition: Rectangle hole to left of Onan panel
was rocker switch to connect batteries together.

(Possible that toggle switch at 1 o'clock to
ignition switch is now the replacement?....)

On my 1976 the two breakers in the outside opening come from the generator and must be in the off position, then I plug into shore power and turn the interior breakers on.

My dash was such a mess I just removed and started over, I had the same
issues switches with no wires holes with no switches . Mine had a rocker
switch above the wipers for the washer and a toggle switch for the fuel
tank switch over. I have some original diagrams of some of the electrical
system . Let me know if I can help. Thanks Richard

nice upgrade!!
