Before you start
- The electrical code does not allow the remote-control harness or wiring to be routed in the same conduit with AC wiring.
- Be sure to seal all openings made for the wiring so exhaust or fuel vapors cannot enter the living quarters.
Procedure
- Unscrew the two hold-down screws that hold the panel in place.
- Remove and discard the short 6” wiring harness connecting control panel P1 to genset J1.
- Disconnect the leads that connect the running time meter to the terminal block inside the control box.
- Replace the short harness with a longer harness that will reach the control panel mounting location.
- Route the harness through the opening at the side of the control box.
