StonyRiverDave,
Mine 180 came like this with labels, but there is more going on here with the 12v side that you need to noodle out yourself, lots of shared things. for instance the bed area lights also power the both outside lights and the relay for the slideout but not the slideout, and the bath lights also fire the fan.
 Like furpod says, just turn everything on and turn breakers off 1 at a time and you will find out what they do in a minute. As for the fuses, it's the same process only you have to figure out what they shared. 
Good luck! and Congrats on the new pod!

So far, every pod I have worked on, the fridge has been the last fuse, and it's been a 20 or a 30..

Looking at my picture again , I don't even have a 20 amp fuse in there,and SRD has one more fuse than me.
SRD, does your new pod have the awning or electric jack?

The warranty and service person at Forest River sent me a .docx file for the wrong product, then sent the fuse .doc file.  I still don't have the breaker label file.

She said they couldn't get the labels for me because they were not making RPods at the moment!  ???

My wife read in the paper this morning that there was a fire at the Forest River plant maybe that has something to do with it. And I do know they schedule runs of different RVs in the same plant so they're not continuously making rpods

I checked it out. It was a mostly vacant building that Forest River was refurbishing so that their Elkhart Coach Division could use it. It was not the Forest River R-Pod/Surveyor factory in Goshen.
See The Elkhart Truth article for details. There is a link on the same page to an article about a fire in a Lippert components factory in Goshen on the 8th of May. That might affect production since the R-Pod includes Lippert parts.
