    Getting the inverter correct!

    A bit frustrated: I'm no idiot--well, not a BIG one!--but this has me stumped. So, my 2016 Cedar Creek 5th wheel had an inoperative inverter: it was a Magnasafe 1000W, where the on switch was inop. I replaced it with a WFCO WF5220 2000W inverter, which hooked up the existing wiring *exactly*...
