OBTW - when placing a 15amp fuse between the charge wire and marker light circuits on the 7-pin connector, marker lights, brake lights (low mode) and tag light illuminate.
That is an old trick that has been around for a while, but some here may not be aware of it. Thanks for mentioning it.

ScubaRx and I did a hands on demonstration and discussion about PEX plumbing at the 2022 OTTO's rally. It seemed to be well received by those that participated. We were talking recently about lubricating the dump valve cables and the valves themselves and thought it might be a subject for discussion at this years rally if there was enough interest. So if anyone has interest in this topic, please PM me directly. And if anyone is having trouble with their dump valves, we might be able to incorporate that into the demonstration/discussion if they are willing to have some “amateur plumbers” in and around their Ollies. We will limit this offer to 2 Ollies if there are any volunteer victims!

After removing the wire loom from the 2-wire harness, I noticed "white to white" and "black to red":
I had an opportunity to check my tag light wiring yesterday. and it matched your wiring before your repair. And I found it also matched the wiring diagrams in the 2017 LE2 manual, although the manual diagram does not show a tag light. It is not much of a guess that they used the tail light circuit to power the tag light. So I have a question for Art, were there any wiring instructions with the new light you installed that designated the positive and negative wires?
And the next question is for John Davies. I have been looking for RV wiring standards and the ANSI RVIA Low Voltage Systems for 2020 costs $45.00, which I did not choose to pay. You have made reference to this documentation before and thought you might be able to share your source of information for the rest of us.

Any idea what the two tan wires with nothing connected are for?
My 2017 LE2 manual indicates that the tan wires are for the camera system. Since I don’t know how you Ollie is equipped it’s the best I can do. My rear camera switch is at the entrance and I have an unused tan wire in the wiring/switch access port in the upper cabinet above the microwave that is routed up into the area above the entrance and heading toward the bathroom where the front camera option was located when it was offered.

There's an old saying in the motorcycle world - "tires are cheap insurance".
And l thought the saying was “keep the greasy side down”, but I guess they do go hand ‘n hand!

Emerson 1E78-140 Non-Programmable Heat Only Thermostat for Single-Stage Systems
Pardon my language, but the mechanic unit is unreliable cr@p with an excessively wide deadband.

Did you have separate thermostats for heat and air with your OEM Atwood air conditioner?

The CGI guys worked almost 12 hours straight yesterday to get our 7 year old trailer looking better than the day we picked it up!
All I can say is WOW! Maybe I can hold back my IRS payment and get ‘er done!

Correct! Our 2017 has the cutout/storage tray underneath the nightstand top.
Funny story: Just yesterday, we discovered a cutout/storage area underneath the countertop just below the pantry locker.
These two locations used to be an OTTO secret! I guess the cats out of the bag!

This is a little different approach to adding additional solar panels.

I have seen the Alabama fan at the rally, but I can’t put a name to the trailer either. Maybe the mystery will be solved next month.

I have not seen an operating window for the door. I do just as you mentioned with the Maxxair pulling air out and the bath fan allowing the air in. I would probably leave the bath window open instead of the door if it had a window and extra venting was needed. I know that I can’t fit through the bath window, but I could reach through a door window and unlock the door if I had larceny in my heart.

I’ve never used a brake controller before, so I fiddled with the Redarc trying to dial it in.
I use a setting of 4 to 4.5 with my Redarc. Off course you truck and trailer are newer than mine. I am sure you will cause the brakes to lock up before you get it to your happy place. Just try to do it on a lonely back country road.

Where are your switches located? Knowing that would greatly reduce my "Easter Egg Hunt".
I do not have any switches installed, just the power wires. I think the cellular booster/WiFi antennas are located on the front port corner and the active components are mounted in upper cabinet above the front dinette seat and the switches are then mounted on the outside of the cabinet between the bathroom wall and the cabinet door. You would get the switches when the active components and antennas are installed. So you should wait until April 9th to continue your Easter 🥚Hunt.

Are previous OE2's pre wired for these devices?
If so, where?
Hull 193 is pre wired for power. The pink B+ and yellow B- are accessed from the left end of the bath overhead cabinet. Mossey

Had I the choice I would have skipped the display for $35.
Well, $35 might have covered a date night at Culver’s! 😀

Mopeka is great, I got the PRO model sensors. The only thing that threw me at first was the wall display.
Are you also using the Mopeka app? Just wondering if the wall display is needed?

Maybe I can get some advice from somebody at Oliver.
That would be a great place for information, as well as the door manufacturer which I believe is Lippert.

Also need to order the big seal/gasket under the awning from Oliver. Again, a pain and will take two people to remove the awning.
I removed my awning gasket because it caught every leaf, needle, acorn or anything else that falls out of the trees. And I have never regretted that decision. So I haven’t looked at that gasket in a long time, but I didn’t have to remove the awning to remove the gasket. So I’m going to go out on a limb say that based on my limited experience, I don’t understand why you are going to remove the awning. I know from some of your other posting’s, you’re not afraid of tackling the hard jobs. Are you sure removing the awning needs to be done in order to replace the gasket? If you have time, please take some pictures documenting the door removal and let us know how your did the job.
