Re: Color Code

Tried several times to match paint with the color codes. Ended up taking the camper to local auto parts store. They had a scanner that matched color perfectly. Spray cans were around $30 but will save you a lot of time and effort trying to use original paint codes.

Re: Rear entry door

I had rot issues with my rear door. Replacements didn't match up with size and color. Used original exterior panel. Rebuilt interior myself with materials from Home Depot (foam & plywood) and roll of vinyl from Amazon. Not too difficult a project. It is actually more sturdy than original.

Re: Back door keyless entry lock

I bought a piston form Amazon and made a bracket to hold it. I taped the wire going to the front doors so they all work together. Had to take door apart to run wiring and secure bracket for piston.

Re: coach batteries

Thanks, there were two leads going into the house battery ground. They were in a plastic casing so I couldn't see that the ground from the controller was not attached. Problem solved. Now to replace everything I took apart trying to track wires looking for a break.

After tearing half the van apart in an attempt to run a new positive (red) wire, I discovered that the black ground inside the conduit was detached.
Thanks everyone for your help, it got me on the right course.
