The same thing happened on my 2015 Vegas. I eventually traced it to the Jensen radio. It was discharging my chassis battery even though the radio was turned completely off. So, I removed the 5 amp breaker located in the outside storage compartment under the driver's seat. I reinsert the breaker when driving the MH. A radio repairman told this is common with the Jensen radio especially on a vehicle not driven on a daily basis. Also, could someone elaborate on the Trombeta & BIM please. What are they and where are they located. Thanks

Below is the info and link to col Ed Felker's axis maintenance manual. The infor you request is on page 37 and 38. Thanks Ed.


To download, Click on link in the sticky below. After much trial and error, I think I finally was able to get the .pdf file correctly loaded on MS OneDrive so it can be shared with others If you still cannot download it, send me a PM with you email address & I'll forward a cy.

The current manual is Version 8.0, dated 3 Jun 2019. The link below is a new link to my ONE DRIVE Shared Favorite. The file can be downloaded as a PDF file from the OneDrive Files folder.
