Our 5er has a battery cut off switch in the battery box area. If you store your rig for any extended time without having it plugged in the battery will go dead . I usually keep mine off until I use the rig

Thank you, no it's not the battery disconnect switch, it's on the front wall in the battery compartment, I took a pic but not sure how to get it on here

Could be work lite or if it's close to an outdoor water shower, could be water pump

Ok, not a batt cutoff switch. Maybe a light?
Can you post a pic?

It's part of the backup cam pre wiring. It's doesn't do anything unless you have the camera installed.
