Well..lmao it was bound to happen..thought I'd remind you guys who are in the middle of their projects..if you have a friend help you..make sure all the wires are run BEFORE you close it in..
I spent New Years Day ripping out 2 walls because non of the wires for the wall lights were hot..
SOMEONE deadended the wires in the wall..and never told me
ANYWAY...5 bottles of Killians red and an hour nap..its done..
BUT
Make a plan of the wires and where they go PER room..that way..you might not have to rip the entire wall out to see where your bozo friend dropped the ball..lol

Hmmm, Killians and the BUS, sounds like a new TV show.

- I do agree however, you got to make a map of your wires. I am mapping per 5 foot section of the 40' bus, sort of like keeping the books, and if you labeled your cables, mark the map too. In my case, I hope to never ever have to refer to the labels ever again, but in the unlikely chance that there is ever another owner, he will know why he cant add any extra lights since everything is buried in the wall or ceiling. Ho Ho Ho, Hmm Christmas is over, is'nt it?

- hey pete, glad you had a friend, name of Killians with you as you worked on with the wiring, and as you revisited the wiring too. cd

Hey Guys,
I'd like to add that the hundreds of digital W.I.P. pics I've taken on our '82 RTS II have proved invaluble. A project done two months ago might as well be twenty years for us victims of CRS.

The photos are the thing. I did my bus and my home some 20 years agoe and I still form time to time refure to them. Is is helpful for things other than just the wires
