Loose wires

I own a 2000 kiwi 17a. While repairing some water damage, I moved the low voltage "junction box". A couple of the smaller white wires came loose. I can't tell which wire goes where, or if it really matters. I wondered if someone with a similar set-up could send a photo so I could compare. Thanks for any help.

White wires are ground wires.. they can go into any terminal on that block.

x2. That's a common bus block so they can go back in any hole in that block. Make sure all of the set screws are tight while you are there.

Just a note: white wires are definitely supposed to be ground wires. However, considering how Jayco does wiring and the possible effects of what a previous owner may have done, it might be a good idea to verify what the wire is before connecting it.
