Glad you found it and that it is a BIM 160. Attached is info from PC on their BIM 160.
Thor usually does connect the BIM 160 incorrectly, but that should not affect protecting the chassis battery from being pulled down by the coach battery system. It will affect coach battery charging from the chassis alternator. Judge on this forum was the first to flag this problem and when I wired it right it all worked fine.
You need to wire the chassis alternator output to the A terminal which is on the ignition side of the BIM. Easy enough to swap either now or if you replace it.
Sent you a PM.
