this little thing is cute as ****
It's only got right over 58,000 miles on it

I'm very familiar with cars and RVs but I will be asking questions like true fuel capacity
If anybody has an automatic Vs a 5 speed

And general questions like that
Range, gas mileage, upgrades??

We are the third owner
Second owner was original owners granddaughter

We have a full book of nothing but paperwork and manuals and....
 
Good deal to find you have the paperwork as it gives some of the basics. Owners manul page 2-2 gives fuel capacity but that is just the first part of how far you can go. What makes a big difference is the weight of the driver's foot and how much we take with us!
I rarely know until I get there as what size hills will also figure in the final answer.
 
Here some pics

Does it take a regular battery in there?
And can anyone tell me what I'm looking at with the female plugs and the switches n fuse


Going to repair (what I believe is) the main external cord for the house electricity

The 2 outer are from RV to External, yes?

Going to take in maiden camping trip beginning of June


And does anyone know where the cheapest Wheels are??

Thanx we Already Love It!

So Please
Any and All Info and Instruction is Greatly Appreciated

I am a classic/antique car mechanic so not too out of my wheel house
 
I saw your post today and decided to dig deeper to see what you might be talking about in that post. One of the problems on getting info on RV is knowing how few people have actually owned the one that you have!
While cars are sold by the tens of thousands, RV are much more specific and far, far fewer of each specific RV. And it is quite likely that you have an RV than many have never seen, let alone know much about!
What that often means is that we look through the forum and pop in to talk about things we might know about. That leaves the problem of getting info on this question being something you will need to work a bit harder to get the info you need as most of us will have never touched a 1990 Winnebago Micro-Warrior Class C nor anything close as it was a bit of odd even in it's day!
And with about a million different RV, we often don't try to keep track of all of them!
What that gets down to is that most of us will not know what you are showing in pictures, if you do not tell us what we are seeing!
You get more and far better answers if we know what we are looking at?
I'll throw in some guesses but that is more prone to being wrong when I'm guessing what I see!
the first picture looks like the end of the generator compartment as I see an oil fill and it is not an automotive type! No. I would not expect a battery there close tot eh eneigne as bad for both! The generator will normally be cranked off either the chassis battery of the truck or some will crank off the coach 12VDC. Both will be away from the engine.
Pictures ending in 599 and 633 look like an area at rear of frig? And the box is almost certain to be owner added , so what and how is not going to be on any drawings we can find online! A guess might be that the frig was not cooling well and somebody wanted to add more air movement over the coils by adding a fan. An idea to look over and this might more often be something they added to the 110AC electrical in some way. Box screwed down with what looks like deck screws is a "tell" on that one!
Pic ending in 046 might be owner added? To secure something like a small tank? Maybe a scuba tank?
Two pic enidng 067 look to be near rear of frig or water heater? Possibly OEM for AC power to heating element on whatever item is?
Picture 681 is definitely not original, so most likely grounding for some item that has been added! wire tracing needed to ID them?
Pic 638, is more familiar as many RV have an outlet to let us plug some itme in whe the RV is connected to 110AC power like at a post at a campsite! Lets you plug portable items like TV with rabbet ears, grill, or lights in as needed!
But what may help get the better answers is giving folks a better chance at knowing what they are looking at in pictures. Pictures are great but only if we have seen that space before and not many will have seen your specific RV.

Kind of like showing a teen a carb and asking questons? Many will have never seen a carb, only fuel injection! What's that funny plate inside that moves? We have to get in the right world to know which side is up!
Hope that doesn't sound too much like just ragging on things but hints to get better results!
 
Picture 599 is the fridge and that is an added outlet box. The propane has a pressure gauge built in which I have only seen once. The factory plug for the fridge is to the left. Picture 046 is definitely to hold a battery. Obvious by the strap and wires hanging there. But what it goes to and if its original are in the wind. Pic 267 is the fridge factory plug in. 633 is the added box with receptacle. 681 is a breaker for the convertor, but I can't think of what the PNL is. 267 is redundant. 638 is an outside outlet, not used for putting power in.
 
Wiring Diagrams

Interestingly enough Winnebago has documentation going back to 1990! I am not sure what your specific model is, but they list wiring diagrams for a variety of the smaller campers. Maybe this will help.

Aaron :cool:
