We have a black and white cable wire, which is negative?

on my Ascape camper where do the wires go? I have 5, one heavy white ground, and 2 split wires, totalling 5 wires. the 2 that are split, are one w/ 2 white wires, and the other split wire is one white wire and one black and white. Which wires go on the pos. and which ones go on the neg. side?

Thanks!

Most RV's will have black for positive, NOT Red!
-
Thanks. Double checking positive ( black) terminal first . 😀 my old camper has a positive white wire! This is so confusing!
-
I was looking for a full video on prepping the wires and parts.

Question: I accidentally reversed the wires when I was attaching them to our Aliner battery. Caused an electrical fire down the wires back under the trailer. I need to know if, in your best guess, if I would have to replace all the wiring, and can a private party can buy it vs an electrician. The trailer was used and all the wires appeared to be taped together, and of course, I pulled them apart, only AFTER the mishap did I see the white wire under the trailer (I must assume is the ground and the negative wire).
-
My question is, which terminal do you attach the ground too. I have positive, negative, and ground. Store that sold me the battery said it should be attached to the negative, but I don't think my ground wire is long enough to reach the negative side. Does it matter?
-
ok nice, how about explaining how to disconnect also. thx
-
Do you know how I can find out what kind of battery my 1995 citation camper trailer takes? About this trailer never used a trailer before and it came with no battery I just want to make sure I buy the right one thank you
