I am a little disappointed in the recent Silverado as it requires disconnecting the negative battery cable before towing. Just another step that I don't want to take.

Fuel gauge sender access, Webasto won't ignite (where is it). Overhead control panel just went out except for chassis battery check.no (http://check.no) other function us registering neither does water pump activate. How's that for starters? Its a nice motorhome cosmetically excellent, I'm second owner, garage kept from day 1. And only 60,000 miles. Tks j.t.

We have been towing a silverado for almost 8 yrs. With a cap on the rear our storage space has increased. As far as disconnecting the negative terminal, I have put a disconnect on the battery negative terminal. Takes less than 30 seconds to connect the terminal. We also have a 40' and have had no problems

So install a knife switch on the balltery terminal. Or have some one install a 200 amp relay with a switch. TWI 2004 Intrigue 11731.
