I don’t know how you find these diagrams. This is exactly mine other than being backwards. I obviously messed up on my wiring someplace. I thought I replaced the six gauge wire with the four gauge wire following the same wire paths in the trailer but obviously not. I ran my four gauge wire from the DC panel to the cut off switch and then from the cut off switch to the reset breakers and then to the battery, which was obviously incorrect. I don’t know what I did to the other ends of the two black wires on the bottom left that feeds power to the wall slide. I’ll relook at it and hopefully get it fixed. Thank you.
I was figuring on maybe being able to drive the trailer a few weeks maybe three at the most after my surgery to go camping. My wife’s telling me the Internet states that I probably won’t be driving until up to eight weeks after the surgery. That is not what I expected. Was your experience the same?

[QUOTE=gbkims;296837]Lance,
By your description and looking at the various photos of front compartment DC wiring, which all look different, this one from beaumark looks the closest to what you might have.
https://www.mygrandrv.com/forum/show...l=1#post264950
So it was Battery + to copper bus bar to feed power to the 4 auto resetting CBs.
Large Red wire on bottom went to the Disconnect switch, then back to bottom of left CB as +12 Black wire and on same terminal +12V Black runs to the AC-DC Panel, and thru the CB to Bedroom Slide Controller.

Hope this helps some.
Wishing you speedy recovery from your hip surgery.
Been about 10yrs since I had lower back worked on. Now right shoulder getting some arthritis, just getting older.[/

Sorry I doubled the above reply. Still learning how all this works. I wish there was a tutorial.

[QUOTE=Lance Glogowsky;296856]Gene:
OK, using the diagram you posted, a few days before my surgery, I connected all the wires in the right spots. Unfortunately, the 4 gauge wire from the DC panel was too short to reach the auto resetting cb after disconnecting it from the battery cutoff, as well as then running the correct wire back from the auto reset busbar to the cutoff switch. I mickey moused the three wires together in the middle of that run using a cooper 2/0 size set screw wire clamp that connects to a battery post. I used the battery post hole and screwed it onto a small block of wood into the front compartment wall. Doing this three days before my surgery and being under quarantine until after the surgery didn't allow me to obtain a +busbar. I wanted it operational not knowing the shape I would be in when I could go camping after my new 6 million dollar hip was in place.
Now that I'm back home from the hospital, I need to order a 4 stud + busbar for it. I still have to finish wiring the BMV702 system up. I'm sure I will be asking the forum for help with it.
I made a 4 day reservation at Heber City Utah Mountain Valley RV resort for May 21st. I hope the therapist and doctor gives me a green light to be able to drive my trailer there.
Thanks for your continual help as well as from everyone else.

I'm glade I changed my 6 gauge wiring to 4 gauge. My voltage meter shows 14.6 volts going out of the PD converter and 14.5 volts at the connection for the lithium batteries, which are about 10' away. The charged lithium batteries shows 13.7 / 13.8 volts. Is 13.7 / 13.8 volts the normal fully charge voltage for lithium batteries? What is your suggestion for the positive fuse amperage at the batteries positive post?
Thanks

Lance,
Is this the 4 Awg from the Battery + Post to the Auto Resetting CB Busbar via the Dual MRBF Terminal Fuse Block?
If so for 4 Awg I'd use a 100A fuse, it's enough for the battery charging amps and any loads pulled by the RV as well as below max ampacity of 4 Awg 105°c wire.

Some photos would help with visualizing your setup.
I have used http://photoposting.is-great.net/ for posting as well as the forum's image posting function.
For the UT1300 being fully charged. The UT1300's internal BMS (Battery management System) controls when the batteries stop accepting charge.
I've seen 13.9V mention, so 13.8V is pretty close.
User Manual made it look like there some LEDs on the battery to check charge also.

Lion Energy FAQ https://lionenergy.com/products/lion-safari-ut-1300#faq
Battery Charging Parameters:
We recommend setting all voltages to a max of 14.6 per UT in series or at least close to it.
End amps or tail amps need to be set as low as possible and inverter low voltage needs to be set to 11.5V.
Victron inverters charger and charge controllers should be set to 13.9 volts for a 12 volt inverter and 27.8 for 24 volt inverters.
Also Lion Energy sent andrewsteve charge info, it's for solar charger, but looks like 13.9V for fully charged.
