What is the somewhat flat plastic box (Pictured Above) on a 2014 Catalina Travel Trailer which connects to the battery positive post?
It branches off into two lighter wires. This TT has an electric tongue jack. I disconnected both the positive and negative cables last fall at the campground and this piece has gone missing. I do not know where it went or what it is for. The only reason I know it had this apparatus is because I took a photo with my camera before I disconnected the cables. The only thing I could find to connect is the red positive and white negative cables.
I am also wondering if it is harmful to connect the battery and shore power without this box?
ANSWER: The wire on your travel trailer's battery is an In-Line Fuse Holder and yes you need to have it connected to your battery to prevent possible wiring, battery or fire damage to your Travel Trailer.
