I *think* it's a fused link on the 12v side.. I meant to investigate it further, but forgot. next time I am in there I will.. I can't for a minute think it would hurt to move it if you have room and slack. I would turn off the 120v and disconnect the battery before messing with it, just to be safe..

Funrpod. excellent installation and pictures. I bet Forest River is scratching their heads and saying hummmm. I bet it is going to be an option in the future. They owe you the royalties on any upcoming outside showers. thanks for sharing you did a good job.

BTW.. as a long overdo follow up.. the wiring things are "junction boxes"according to a RV mechanic friend of mine.. They build and wire the slideout on one line, the pod itself on another... and when they mate the two, that's the wiring "junction box"..

Good job!
I am contemplating adding an outside shower to mine, had them on my last several RVs. I've really never needed them but one bad case of one of the dogs getting something on them and it could be priceless I was surprised also that FR didn't offer one. I have also thought about adding some quick connect ports, sort of like air hose couplers, somewhere underneath to be able to plug in an outside mixing valve and shower hose. That way in the rare case I'd need it I'd be ready without cutting holes. |

Budward, If you search around on the two forums, someone did that, and put it in the rear storage compartment. The sink hookups for the garage in a G model would be perfect for that...

Not sure if these pics will be helpful, but our outside shower was installed in the same location. Make sure you add a string or wire to prevent the cover from falling in front of the heater exhaust!
