AC panel designations
Art- your battery heaters are probably 99% removed. The block heater, with a
switch in the rear closet is located on the curb side of the engine.

AC panel designations
I've been crawling all over my new purchase for the last two weeks
verifying that everything works ( I was assured that was so). So far
everthing works does work. The only inconsistancy I've found is several
of the AC circuit breakers are mis-labled. I've been able to track
most of them down and properly label them. What is eluding me is the
location of the engine block heater and the battery heater. The only
thing I know is that the breakers are mis-marked.I ne4es to find out
the location of these heaters so I can trace them back to the AC panel
using a multimeter. Anybody--- jump in.

Art,
The switches that control the on/off for the block heater and the
battery heater are located in one of the rear closets if your 'Bird is
set up the same as ours. If you want, stop by the house and we'll take a
look your panel and my panel.

I have three switches in one of the rear closets. One is marked "hot water
heater", the other two are unmarked. Perhaps those are the two I'm looking for.

Art,
Top switch is Water Heater, center is Engine Heater, bottom is Battery
Heater. I opened up the battery heater wiring box located in the engine
bay, disconnected the wires for the battery heaters and put the heater
system in the trash, they were in bad shape. I then install a 110V
outlet in that box, flip up cover over the outlet.

Move over one closet and I believe you will find a couple more switches,
small/black, that control the bedroom chassis heater.

I do indeed have those 3 switches in the rear curbside closet. Traced them back
to the AC panel today. They went where
they were marked except the water heater. I have no switches in the other rear
closets.

Ther motor/generator and chargers have been replaced by an 2500 watt
inverter/charger bolted to the rear center closet wall.
I'm guessing they (?) rearanged some of the circuits to balance the inverter
load.

Hi Art On mine the switch for water heater is the middle
one in the back curb side closets.You can also locate it buy connecting a A/C
volt meter to the water heater 110 volt wiring and by turning your
switches/breaker on and off you will fined it.
