I want to add a wireless system to my 5th wheel toy-hauler to control the slides, jacks and awning.
I am drawing a blank on how to wire this system up because the switches that are in there are already 5 wire resting neutral.
How do I 5 wire a 5 wire neutral system?

If both motor legs are normally open, have a peek at this: https://www.the12volt.com/relays/relaydiagram2.html

Read his description again. The motor legs are normally open.

A wiring diagram of the existing circuit would help. Some people call the ground leg a neutral.
