JaySmart LED lighting System

Hello everyone, My wife and I are first time RV owners. We bought a 2021 Jayco Jayflight SLX 267BHS from a private party a couple weeks ago.
How do I know if this trailer has the JaySmart LED lights system? All the interior and exterior lights are LED.

Shortly after hitching up and checking all the exterior lights, they all wend out. Plus it blew all 5 trailer fuses in my 2021 F150 Hybrid. I've been working on this thing for 2 weeks trying to figure out if there is a wire grounded out. Took every exterior light off and tested each light with 12v battery. I tested all the wires for continuity and checked all the ground wires to see if any hot. Everything tested out fine, but nothing was working.

I finally found the problem. In the front storage area, which can be accessed from each side, I found a box connected to the left front panel. The box is made of the same panelling they used for the interior of the storage compartment.
I unscrewed both screws and pulled it off. I found a badly burned black box with a circuit board. All the wires were burned and stuck together. The fire started to burn up the wires into the wood frame. All the wires from the junction box ran through this piece of wood and this is where it stopped. Burned a little of the wood and then went out.

What is this black box with the circuit board? Looks light it may have had some resisters, diodes and one relay.

I sincerely appreciate any help I can get.

Thank you,

Dale

Yes, specs show you have Jsmart lighting. I am not a wiring guru, but that is insane, I am so sorry that happened to you! So glad your trailer didn’t catch fire.

Specs

Thank you! Had my whole family in the truck. It’s really kinda scary.

Where did you find specs on my RV?

I’m not sure where to find them.

Thanks

The little black box with the circuit is the brains of the JaySmart system.
