Thought I would try to ask this here as I know many of you have varied backgrounds and experience and I trust you.
I am looking to buy a fifth wheel. I found one and it has a couple of electrical issues. I have posted below what the issues are in the seller's words.
Any ideas. How hard are these types of things to fix in a large 5th wheel? ect?

any imput is appreciated.
The RV is a 1998 Coachman Royal Fifth Wheel 358rlts Rear Lounge High Profile Wide Body (Triple Slide


My trailer experience is limited to my 2004 LANCE camper and a 32 FT car hauler I have for a race car.

One of the awning arms needs repair, the fantastic fan and adjacent light in the living room don’t work, and the coach batteries need replacing. """"""
