This is the solution for an easy 12V power source for a 21, or a 19, for that matter. Dennis (Forum member "denjess") consulted ETI, and they told him to look under the driver side arm of the tongue, about 3 feet back from the yoke. Locate a 3"X5" plastic box with plastic conduit running to it. Remove the cover and find 6-7 screws, each with wires leading to them. Each screw tip is painted a different color. Locate the BLACK painted screw. It has a RED (+) wire leading to it. Remove the nut and add the 10 ga. wire as described in Robert's original post. WAH-LAH!
Dennis (denjess) did his 19 and this past Friday, I did our 21. We both have basic skills and found this an easy installation, just as Robert suggests.
Thanks Dennis and Robert!
