I too, experienced w/ aviation manuals, and understand your feeling, but from what I read, the GSCOACH approach is not unusual in the RV world; (and GS aviation employees never visit the RV world, LOL) there are a few MFR w/ BETTER MANUALS and have read (some) dealers have done better jobs of assembling proper manuals for the new owner sales. GS DOES have a nice outline online of their intended online approach to owner manual access, but suspect either that employee gone, or Covid/ other factors intervened and stopped that effort.
Online search will find that you can fill (some) holes from other dealers' websites, but generically, all brands pretty much alike on FUNCTION? SIL bought a KEYSTONE BULLET 5th wheel a few years back, and I/ we could find nothing wrong from factory. (= amazing?) Mine now a 24-yo GS Class-C, I see was higher quality line when it was built.
My (now 7+yr RV experience) tells me from research that once you understand RV systems basics, brands pretty much mirror each other?
p.s. Thinking out loud, disconnected wires suspect wud have to be either to a shake/ wind SWITCH to initiate AUTO RETRACT, or to LED LIGHTS? Did you ever determine BRAND/ MODEL?
