New RVer needing some severe educating on my 1st RV

[Conger79]

I recently lost my home and became homeless at no fault of my own. I then met a lady who traded me her 1995 Airstream Land Yacht RV for my Cargo Van. My problem is im unemployed, with an RV, (My first RV ever) that I dont know anything about these 12 different color wires or how to connect them to make the RV have hot water, electricity, refrigerator, etc and the ONAN Generator wont start. I need someone to just tell me what order by color of wire to connect beginning left to rigjt on a 4 Switch thiwith what 3 color wires to connect to the 1st Switch with 3 pronns and then the same for the 2nd Switch, 3rd Switch and 4th Switch. Then Ill know how to connect them to the switch above the stove and then the switch in the bathroom with the R3d light in the middle having 2 wiring prongs which I figured out Red and Yellow because the Red light came on. The other 6wir3s, (3 for the on/off switch for the Pump and then the last 3 to make the on/off Switch for the Water Heater to.power on.

Please walk me thru the wiring hookups and then maybe I will be able to enjoy the pleasures of owning my 1St RV ever. And Its a Class.A Motorhome

Posting make, model, year, and a few pics of what you're trying to connect will likely get you more replies.

Sadly I don't think even with the best intentioned folks here you are going to be able to accomplish what you are trying to do. Based on your post it sounds like you are doing a complete rewire of this unit. Maybe I'm misreading it but I think you are in deeper than a forum can help....

Another idea would be to contact someone on our sister forum: https://www.airforums.com/ .

There may be someone over there that could provide more help than here.
