Know what these unused wires are for, Red Black pair appear to be for D.C. power, Microwave quit working, i removed it for replacement and found these spare wires, not a good spot for solar wiring too the batteries

Many RV's are made with "Standard" wiring harness.. They use the wires they need. And leave the rest "N/C" (not connected)

Is there any voltage to them? Also, the rest of the wires seem to be overhead and those wires head off to the left. They look a bit too big for unused external speaker wires so that is out. What is off to the left as they seem to go in between the lower cabinet trim panel and the floor of the cabinet but you probably noticed that already. Keep us posted as that is a good mystery!

Could be direct wired from a generator compartment, if you have one.

Some of those wires look like 10 gauge?? If so, maybe this was for an inverter, using heavy wire to minimize voltage drop.

Maybe not a true 12-volt microwave but run 120-volt microwave via an inverter.
