Schematic
Can anyone point me in the direction of a schematic for a LD MB? The manual only provides the most cursory electrical info. A schematic (complete wiring diagram) would be most helpful. Thanx. D.O.

As far as we can tell, there are no wiring diagrams for the coach part of any rig. 

Wiring diagrams for the Ford side can be found.

What sort of problem are you having?  There is a chance that one of us has seen it before.

Lazy Daze included wiring diagrams in the back pages of manuals for the two rigs I've owned (1985 and 2003). They weren't great--simplified block diagrams, really--but better than nothing. I no longer own those rigs, and the manuals went with them, but hopefully someone here can supply a copy of the diagrams.

(A friend once showed me wiring diagrams from the manual for their Chinook motorhome. They were detailed schematics, with every wire labeled as to its gauge and color code. I was envious!)

A year or two ago I asked Todd if there are any wiring schematics or build diagrams. Negative. So the bad news is that there is not help available from LD. The good news is that it's kinda' fun figuring it out.

I've searched my files, but I don't have the wiring diagrams from the manuals of either my 1985 or 2003 Lazy Dazes. I wish I had scanned them, but twenty years ago, scanning was more of a pain than it is today. (Now I just use my iPhone.)

The best I could come up with was this, the last page of the 1884 manual's table of contents. As you can see, the wiring diagram was on page 76. I remember that the 2003 manual had a similar wiring diagram at the back of the manual.  Anybody who has a Lazy Daze manual should be able to find that diagram at the back of the book. Hopefully someone will post it here.

If the OP wants a copy of the basic wiring diagram from our LD manual for our 2009 MB, I’ll scan and post it.  I can do it tomorrow. 

Follow up Note.   Our information is exactly the same as Larry’s posted below.

Here are the schematics for our 2003 LD. There is limited information available.









Very basic information, I guess it is better than nothing.

I hope I'm not arrested for copyright violation.

LD was an old school manufacturer that, AFAIK, never used blueprints or schematics, unlike modern RV manufacturers. Instead of prints, they used full-size templates for the coach framing.
The wiring is very simple compared to many of today's RVs, I guess the electrician, after wiring a few LDs, knew exactly what to do.

As I understand it from both Newmar and Entegra owners, neither of those brands use/provide schematics, either.  Winnebago is supposedly one who does (and makes them and other build documentation readily available online to owners.)  Both our Foretravels came with a complete set of paper schematics.
