Does your 2013 have a master battery disconnect? This is a 2014 on a 2013 chassis. Don't know when they changed but ours has this master switch on the door post and it controls the actual heavy duty switch located back below the lounge alongside the electrical panel. The actual switch has a motor in it and when you turn off the low power switch by the door, you can hear the motor actually turning the master switch under the lounge. Of course you can also turn the master switch under the lounge by hand too. I added the small plastic "guard" as the first time out with our daughter in the 3rd seat, her elbow bumped the switch turning off the batteries and we did not know immediately what was wrong. Its a great switch. Its a good location but it should be manufactured with a "safety" of some kind. On our last Class A the electric water dump valve and the master battery switch both had clear plastic covers over them so it could not be done accidentally.

Along with a small sign that says, "Press to test. Release to detonate." Just to discourage people from playing with it.

I like that idea. Maybe that's what I'll have made for my propane shut off switch.

Previous post said to put the second switch after the first. This requires knowing which red wire goes to the outside switch and which come from it (to the solenoid). Either wire will do. There is no need to put the second switch after the first. If both have to be on for gas to go, the electrons don't care which switch it is that stops them.

Since my second switch is lighted when ON, I need the first switch, under the body, to be ON to provide power to the second switch! Electrons need power coming from power on the first original switch to light the second switch. And since I was able to determine which was the IN and OUT red wire, it was easy.

On mine the wire going to the outside switch is printed with 6, and the wire returning from the outside switch is imprinted with 6A (or was it B, dang it was less than a week ago too) Regardless the 6 is for circuit or fuse 6 and the returning wire had an additional character.

Subject in question is a 2013 twin bed model so your mileage may vary.
