thor 2006 coach battery wiring diagram

[exit55]

Does anyone have a GOOD wiring diagram for the coach batteries in a 2006 Thor Vegas, The diagram I have look like they are in series--not parallel. Can't e, batteries are each 12 V. I am getting nothing when I switch the coach from STORE to USE. Think it is wired correctly but I don't see a wire going to ground on the negative side.

That would be a problem.
They made a Vegas in 2006?
There is no "GOOD wiring diagram" for a Thor coach. Plus your Vegas may not be wired the same as your neighbor's Vegas.
What you needed was labeled cables and lotsa pictures BEFORE disassembly.
Failing that you need to trace your cables and connect them where they belong.

For two 12 VDC batteries the positives are connected together and the negatives are connected together.
The the cable that connects to the MH frame goes to the combined negative (either negative post).

The rest should all be positive supply cables and should to connected to eith positive post. You should have:

One that goes to a 50 amp DC breaker - supply to the house battery buss/converter through the battery disconnect latching relay.
One that goes to a 100 amp DC breaker that supplies the generator and leveling system (if so equipped).
One that goes through a large breaker or fuse to an inverter - if so equipped.
Maybe one that goes to the chassis battery connection device (BIM/BIRD-Trombetta). many time this cable is combined with the generator cable.

After connecting correctly, check your DC breakers and reverse polarity fuses in the Power Center.

My dad, being helpful, ripped out my 24.1 batteries as I was out buying new ones.
No chance for pictures.
With a magnifying glass we did a forensic exam/audit of each wire to know where things went by bends and turns and crimps.

As you're facing your battery box there should be TWO breakers on the rear inside of the battery box.

Thanks for the help. Found problem on hookup Working great (I think). Sat down had a Bud and thought about what was wrong.

On the wiring diagram, where is the inverter? it has to be hooked to a postive. with the neg going thru the frame.

They didn't come with an inverter. Someone added it.

How were the batteries charged??

The big positive from the inverter goes to your positive on the battery either directly or through a junction.

Same with the negative but to the negative.

Not a great picture but the 4-0 black and the same in red coming in from your left are what's tied my inverter to my batteries at those blocks. The blocks go on to the batteries themselves with the double 1-0 heading off to your right.

Just run an new pos and neg to the batteries directly from the inverter.
The gray on the inverter cables is garden hose to prevent any chafing.

The pic is my 2018 axis(same as vegas) where your batteries are now.
Ioved mine to a bin because that under step stuff sucked.

Batteries are charged by the CONVERTER. See my previous response.

Got my terms missed up. Should have said converter (ac to dc) instead of inverter (dc to ac)
