Just a thought.

TMC easily and happily provides these diagrams to any RV owner via the Thor Owners Resource portal. To allow them to be published on a public, non-affiliated website would pretty much void any copyright claim they would have on their confidential and proprietary property.

oh, I did not read it.

The diagrams in the owners resource portal are not detail enough, but seems we can ask for the specific one from them. It will be much easier than to do reverse engineering.

I understand why they may not...
But my question was, has anyone from the Forums staff actually asked if it would be OK to help each other with their specific diagrams? Maybe Janet H knows?
I can Google and receive thousands of Ford or Chev chassis wiring diagrams; I have gone and looked at hundreds of Winnebago wiring diagrams on their website and it is a joy to see all those diagrams, so readily available...
So, has anyone actually put in a formal request?

Had to replace that dang trombetta again 4th time, somehow they are getting burnt out internally, with a volt meter chassis shows 12.5v house shows 13.6v if I cycle the trombetta a few times it works for awhile but still gets really hot, after some research the trombetta 114-1211-010 is only a 200amp continuous duty, so I found a 500 amp from installbay part no ib500 exact mount and wiring as the old relay, so far after a hour it’s still cold to the touch, 13.6 both sides with 12.5 on the signal wire

This was from a person from 2017, Second was replacement of BIRD, Trombetta contactor, House disconnect contactor with Blue Sea Automatic Charging relay ML-ACR, and Remote Battery switch ML-RBS. Also, got rid of hanging fuses and replaced them with Blue Sea fuse block for 4 circuits. Also many people replace theirs with trombetta with ones made with better contactors inside
