I purchased a new 192 a year ago. I was told that it was solar prepped. The other day my Son climbed up on the roof and found the wiring connector was installed but not the panel mounting brackets for the roof. Does this sound correct?
Thanks, Bill

Yes. Understand that the “solar prep” just means that there are 2 wires running from the roof connection, through the cabin, to the battery.
In order to use these wires, you will need: Solar panels solar cable Solar cable crimping tool 4mm solar cable connections Solar controller Inline fuse The solar wires run through a cabinet in the cabin. You will cut the wires and install the solar controller and fuse inline between the roof connectikns and the battery. |
