What is this wire?
Found live 12V deep pink or red wire and white wire in the space below the closet in my 2017 22FB. Live even when the store switch is in off position. Any ideas? Thanks!

Should be power for the LP detector that is mounted on one of the doors opening to the space under the closet.

Sorry, I didn't mention they were not going anywhere. Just lying there live with crimp couplers on the free ends.

Are you the original owner? Some owners rewire the LP detector so it is switched and therefore is not a load when the use/store switch is in the "store" position. That extends battery life when in storage, although at the loss of an LP leak warning. If your trailer was previously owned, it may have been retired. To know if that's the case, 1. find your LP detector, 2. If it has a light on it (mine does... it's green) when the use/store is in the "use" setting, switch to "store" then wait a while and see if the light goes out 3. If not light in "use" mode, you'll need to remove the detector and use a multimeter to see if the power to the detector is switched by the use/store switch.

I'm pretty sure that's the pre-wire for the solar.

The mystery deepens... yep I'm the original owner and LP works but I'll double click later. Solar is yellow and green. Already positively identified the solar.

No sub (doesn't come with a 22 sport) also why would it always be hot? Thanks though.

on my 23D, I had s et like that in the back of my refridge compartment. In contacting AS they said it was the fridge power??? my fridge worked okay, and received power from another source. They had no answer, and said each was built custom.
My point is, what else is in that area that could be powered (maybe LP), and perhaps they did what they did in mine, and used another source. I isolated each wore with electrical tape to prevent and future shorting....

Love the each one is custom built comment. "Just hook up whatever wire ya want guys, it'll be fine."
Eventually I'm going to utilize the Weboost 22v power plug to these always hot wires and place a switch.

For some reason, if you have an AS that includes a subwoofer, it's wired to be ON all the time.
Not saying it makes sense, but that's the way they build them...adding a switch to that circuit is on my list--since we never listen to the Sony radio anyway...

Loose pink (red) and white
Resurrecting an old thread here. Confirming this loose pair of wires behind the closet in my 2011 16’ sport are the same ones others are seeing.
Coming out of the wiring harness behind the sink.
They are power for the non-installed subwoofer?
I was thinking about adding a usb charging outlet and if this is constant 12v, this could work nicely.
(Also I thought I accidentally cut something and was searching everywhere for the other side if the wire. Kinda dicey AS leaving loose power around)
