This is what it looks like inside the under belly of a high end 5th wheel. Not mentioning the brand.
It’s wildly insane how many of these just don’t burn to the ground
Fkn rats nest.
They’re all like that. It’s not that bad. Some of those wires aren’t even connected to anything, they’re just garbage left in there. lol
Looks just like my Grand Design.
Here’s a picture under my trailer, not inside the belly, fully exposed to the elements, brand new 2022 forest river trailer. Behind my hand is a regular run of the mill metal square electrical box that houses, free floating my connections between the trailer and harness to the truck.

I spent my free evenings after work for almost a month redoing ALL of this because forest river said this was normal and fine. When I dropped the belly the wiring was free hanging in the frame and wires were starting to chafe. I was maybe 1000miles from an electrical fire. Again forest river said this was fine and normal.
If it wasn’t clear this is a FOREST RIVER trailer. Friends don’t let friends buy forest river.
This is why I laugh when YouTube influencers are touting the latest and greatest “high end” 5th wheel trailer. And then have to drag it back to the factory twice a year to have work done on it.
I had a 40’ boat that when surveyed played very closed attention to the wiring. From engines to electronics for navigation and radar to cabin items. Twin turbo diesels and 6K generator. Surveyor said that all wiring was approved, Stranded copper only, no solid wiring due to vibration breakage. How do RV mfg get away with running Romex? I see it in my Newmar and wish it wasn’t.
