I don't know if mine has one or not, but if it does, yes, it was before it. In
the forward compartment (outside, above the generator) on mine there are
multiple busses. Constant on, Filtered Constant, Master Switched, Filtered
Master Switched, and two that are Ignition Switched. The camera shared a 15-amp
breaker in a Constant On bus with the driver's seat controls. I removed that
wire and re-routed it to an open location on an Ignition Bus, and used a spare
15-amp breaker.

1978 Wanderlodge, a few questions
Hey Guys,

Thanks for the replies, but it doesn't seem to do any of that. The
duel rocker type standard 110v light switches (common in household
bathrooms, found throughout my Wanderlodge) are dead center at the
very rear of the bus. They are right above the twin bed facing down.
One operates the 110v power outlet that is above the small desk area
in the bedroom. I assume this was so you could turn on and off a TV
before TV's with remotes? I use it for my computer now. The second one
doesn't seem to do anything though. I have no lights that are
unaccounted for that I'm aware of. I thought I had read somewhere that
it turned on and off the 12v outlet in the same area of the 110v one,
but it doesn't. Perhaps I have to leave the overhead lights on at the
usual switch for it to turn them off? I'll give that a shot when I get
home...otherwise I guess it's time to start tracing wires!


Joshua
