Label Upgrade!

Since we all know how horrible the manufacturer is on labeling things, I decided to take matters into my own hands.
Literally the Fresh Water & Cable was the only ones on my FZ 420 that was without a doubt, clear.
I had access to black and white letter labels and a program to make them at work. I started in the hookup box as pictured. Peeled off the already deteriorating paper-based labels, which were in general proximity at best. Placed my new ones in close, clear and logical spots. And left the warning labels and needed.

Not pictured, I did the ones on the side of the coach to designate the place for Black Tank #2,, Gray Tank #2, Tank Dump, and added one on the curb side for the Propane Port.

Plan to add the Fuel Tanks and Spare Tire access as well.

Looks good, I know its a money issue but its hard to understand why manufacturers can't do that also....what are they saving, maybe 50 cents which I think would be recouped down the road by possibly less communication with an upset or aggravated customer.

Just an FYI - now that everyone (well, almost) is accustomed to the "black is positive and white is negative" RV 12v wiring, our 2018 5er's battery connections are "Red to positive and black to negative". The interior 12v wiring still seems to use the color/white stripe is positive and the solid white is negative. Just the RV industries way of keeping our older brains on the ball.

Lol. jsmith948 ! Just when we get it figured out, they change.

truckerLOU, very nice. Mine in the fuse center aren't too bad. But not the best penmanship either. May redo mine too
