Yes I have a 1993 Fleetwood Tioga Montara,
And recently my distribution center went bad due to a water leak, this caused the house battery to over charge, and then a horrid rotten eggs smell.
I have since replace the old magnatek 6345 power distribution center with a WFCO Converter, with 3 phase charging, and Distribution panel MODEL: WF-8955PEC.
I have a couple questions, I believe when the leak happened, and the old Magnatek Shorted out. The purple wire located at FUSE LOCATION #4 PURPLE in color told the underhood solenoid to stay open as we drove home, thus over charging the house battery as it boiled, and the rotten egg smell was over bearing, So I opted to replace both the SOLENOID for the AUX START and the POWER DISTRIBUTION CENTER.
Here are my issues,
#1 my current solenoid has 3 posts, one on either side, and 1 smaller one on the bttm . , and the new EATON BATTERY SEPARATOR MODEL 1314A has 4 posts on the solenoid with 3 flat spades to connect to .
The two wires coming off the bottom of the old solenoid that I believe to be bad are BOTH FULL PURPLE, ( am I right in assuming one is the purple wire labeled 15AMP AUX START in my converter, and one is the AUX START BUTTON on the dash ) and if so would both stay tied together an put on the SIGNAL spade of the separator . MODEL 1314A by EATON Manufacturer BUSSMAN.
#2 The EATON SEPARATOR has 4 posts, and the chart says , the 3 spades I can connect to are
1. START LAMP
2, START SIGNAL
3. GROUND .
So my question is do I take both purple wires and keep them tied together as their both signal wires ? Seeing as I have no indicator on my dash, and then can I make a ground to the frame and connect it to the ground terminal spade on the separator as I would assume the old solenoid grounded to the place it was mounted .
Can someone please advise about this , I saw WOLFE10 had replied to a similar thread , Or email me and id love to explain further .
Thank You
