Finding a schematic for this old of trailer might be next to impossible. If you are taking the inside skins down, I would replace all of the wiring and make your own schematic.

That way you are sure of two things-you have upgraded wiring and you know where everything goes along with having an accurate drawing.

This is what I did with mine.

Excellent advice... you must strip the interior sheet metal to gain access. Then, rewire.

You have simple 12VDC and 120VAC circuits... don't cross the streams..
