What you'll need to do is add a 7-way to your motorhome, and you'll just plug in your 4-way to a 7-way adapter and complete the wiring to your battery via a circuit breaker with the following:
- Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole # 37185
- 40 Amp In-Line Circuit Breaker # 9510
- 10 Gauge Primary Wire # 10-1-1
The 10 gauge wire is sold by the foot so be sure to get the amount that you need.
