Installation of Prep Kit
Switch Panel Installation
1. Determine where to mount the switch panel. The switch panel should be mounted in a compartment
on the passenger or driver's side of the 5th wheel so the operator will have a view of the coupler while
using the switch panel.
2. Cut a hole in the wall of the compartment 3 3/8” wide by 2 3/4” high (Fig. 1) so the top and bottom
horizontal cuts are parallel to the floor of the compartment.
All electrical wiring harnesses shall be loomed and secured to prevent possible damage and
installed in accordance with RVIA electrical standards.
