Hello all. I recently picked up a 1981 13'
Scamp on New Years Eve. Since then, I've been going through it and so far I cleaned, primered and painted the frame and rear bumper. Re-packed wheel bearings and painted the wheels red. Repaired/replaced/glassed a 6"x8" section of the floor in the back near the water tank. Next on the immediate list: make new cabinet doors, lay down new vinyl faux bamboo flooring and hang up new curtains. Future list: fix the bubbafied AC unit install on the front window, remove/reseal all
windows and polish her up. During all of this, I already have a couple of trips planned and can't wait to get out there.
Now to the
electrical question. Per the PO, the trailer
lights were not working. The 12V
battery system IS working when hooked up to a
battery. The PO just added a set of those magnetic trailer
lights and didn't get to the root cause of the issue. I haven't tested it yet. Per the owner's manual, I am supposed to have a yellow wire and blue wire. The trailer does have electric
brakes, but I am not interested in hooking them up. However, I would like for my tow rig to charge the 12V
battery when driving. Can someone explain exactly what I am looking at here? Is this stock wiring? It doesn't seem like the factory would use this type of wire connector to join two wires. Wires present: White, Black, Green, Brown, Red
