Electrical system, Feb 14, 2024
My vehicle is a 2020 Winnebago Travato GL; on a 2019 RAM Promaster Chassis. Winnebago installs a second alternator that charges to Volta system's Lithium Battery Pack (A GL Model has lithium batteries). Winnebago routes the wiring harness for this 2nd alternator through passenger side front wheel well. There is the possibility that in sharp turns the tire will rub on the wiring harness, thus damaging it. Other Travato owners have identified this rubbing issue (on a Travato Owner's Facebook group). I noticed the outer sheath on the main cable is damaged as result of turning the wheels all the way to the left.
