Thank you I hope the second install goes well, looking forward to seeing pic.

Bought our first Hi Lo in November 2014. Posted on this site that our shakedown cruise was a disaster and asked for a bit of help. Had a fire that burned up the batteries, wires and everything around it except the hydraulic pump and reservoir. Jim came through with some much needed info. This is what I had to do. Replace subfloor of camper above fire, rebuilt door to compartment, replaced all wiring in that was in compartment, made new base that everything sits on, replaced battery and battery box. Replaced hydraulic hose, replaced solenoid, replaced circuit breaker, replaced hydraulic reservoir cap, cleaned up all soot damage and repainted inside compartment. When I say replace, most things were totally burned up so it wasn't replacing, it was starting over. Anyway, got everything back together and it works just fine. We are trying our second shakedown cruise over Easter weekend. I hope that we get further than ten miles from home this time.

Just got our first Hi lo last year. 1993 27 foot. Shake down cruise was a disaster. Fire in battery box/hydraulic pump. After cleaning up everything and trying it out, the pump still works. Here is my problems. All wiring burned. We have the schematic diagram from your library. Diagram says that charging wire goes to a block that says automat?. Need to know if that block is a relay or breaker or some kind of switch. And whatever that part is, where do we get it? Would also like schematic diagram on charging system.
I would appreciate any help. Camping season is near. Thanks. Don
