Battery Disconnect switch

I accidentally dislodged some of the wires off the back of the battery disconnect switch. I have a 31W .This switch is a triple switch with the battery disconnect, Awning and step light. Does any one know which wires go back to each pin? A picture would really help.

Shouldn't be too hard to figure out. A common positive (+) wire to each switch, a load wire from each switch. The USE/STORE switch will have two load wires: one to throw the disconnect relay in one direction; the other throws it in the other direction.

Well it is hard, there are six wires going to the battery disconnect switch.

Sorry, colors mean nothing to me (and probably not to the Thor tech that installed it). I would break out a multimeter and see what each wire goes to.
Chances are even if somebody had the exact coach you have and it was assembled the next day the wire color codes could be different.

You would expect better consistency than that, but it's not always reality.

Hello RVNDad, I would ask Thor. I have gone to their web site and sent a question and the factory got right back to me. I have seen on here that you can request a wiring diagram from Thor by year make, model and VIN. I know it can be frustrating when crap happens but there is a reasonable solution. I wish I could be of more help.
