Wiring Diagram 84 Excella 31ft

The wiring diagram in the owner's manual has had half the page torn off. I would like to locate a copy of this page U-5 in my manual.

The problem is in the fuse block on the left hand 50 amp glass fuse holder that powers the bar for the 5 circuits purple, yellow, red, blue, brown. The fuse holder for the 50 amp is loose where it ties to the block.
So, because the RV place in Lubbock said to, I created a jumper out of 10 guage wire to the fuse holder for one of the 5 circuits to power the bar for the five circuits...I chose the blue circuit.... which happens to be the circuit the radio/cassette is on.
Now the inline 3.5A fuse holder for the radio blew and melted the inline holder...so I replaced it with an inline blade type, and it blows the fuse if I am on shore power unless I go to a 15 amp fuse which I think may be way too much.

So, I switch the jumper to the purple circuit, which is the hall light, and all works fine with the radio until I turn on the hall light and the 3.5A fuse for the radio blows again. I can place a 15 amp in it and it doesn't blow, but I am concerned about melting the radio, or wiring, or causing a fire for over amping the small radio connector wire that had a 3.5A inline fuse in it to begin with.

My trailer is a 84 Excella-31 ft side bath rear twins, front goucho, side credenza with 12 V glass fuse block.

I may end up having to rewire the fuse block, and I would like to find a copy of the wiring diagram first.

I would be happy to provide a toll free number for it to be faxed to me, or to reimburse anyone willing to mail me the diagram. Or maybe someone could scan it and email it to dscluchfc@aol.com.

If anyone can help, I would be appreciative, thanks.

David
