I just opend hood and realized that my 3 batteries were stolen. I have no idea how to reconnect all when i put in. I know

Batt 1 in carriage on left {looking at motor} will be easy as wires are bent and ready to connect. 1 neg and one white :-\ ground and one pos that goes up to solenoid

Batt 2 has 2 positives yet no neg. I wonder if one of the pos may go on chassis battery next in upper position right or both go on 2 and then link pos on Batt1 to neg on Batt 2??

Any help would be appreciated and if you have a pic you can email me if you have the same 3 system battery for 91 please do at iscm2@yahoo
 
My '97 Bounder is very much like your '91, but not nearly enough so for a photo to be useful.  Hopefully someone with a Bounder, closer in age to yours, will offer help soon.

It appears that you have a good idea of how the chassis battery is to be wired.  The house batteries were, in fact, a pair of 6volt batteries that would be connected together via a short cable (pos-to-neg) as shown in the attached photo.  All loose cables in the area of the house batteries will attach to the positive of the top battery in the photo and the bottom battery negative will go to frame ground.

Were they all 12 volt or was the engine bat 12 volt and the house batt 2 6 volt? You would hook up the 2 6 volt differant than 2 12 volt.

I'm not sure what happened to "Stallion Joe", but I provided him with the actual diagrams for his batteries on another forum and he never came back to acknowledge anything.
