you have discovered the limitations of a system that was designed to deliver 6A for 10-20 seconds, and then the world decided to plug gadgets into it that draw maximum current indefinitely. You can get a 16A Hella DIN socket that will fit, but the problem just moves, as the vehicle wiring isn't...
Similar issues with mine, press the close button on the dash twice see if that works. I believe I have damage to my door seal which has a pinch sensor inside.
I have sprayed some wd40 into mine and massaged around the entire seal. This seems to give it a few more weeks use before I need to...
Some updated photos. Still a work in progress but delighted to nearly be at the finish line of having a functioning camper.
I was very skeptical about the amount I spent on Dodo Mat products but the difference is really noticeable when driving. Will need to wait and see if it makes a difference...
Hello electrical geniuses
I'm converting a T6.1 panel van so at the moment have the two OEM LED ceiling lights with no override switch at the lights.
I've read the threads I can find regarding this and see that it can be set up whereby the cargo area lights can be wired via a three way toggle...
So I've been 3d Printing for almost 10 years so I've made a number of additions to the van. Let me know what you think. All of the mods are printed in ASA so suitable for heat.
1) This is a replacement DSG Gear knob. It cam about when I saw people doing the Tiguan mod but I wasn't confident in...
I have my Sanjo Fridge freezer in my camper, was working fine. Parked it up at storage for about a month then wouldn't turn on.
Mcb had tripped and will not turn back on.
Checked fuses from battery, all fuses around Sterling Power charger all good too.
Before I unscrew the Fridge are there any...
nope, this isn't a camper, only non standard electricals are 4x small LED spots in the headlining, which I can only presume are wired into the main cabin light as they only come on when the doors are opened/ van unlocked in the same way the main cabin interior light comes on.
There is a single...
The first thing to check would be 40A fuse in holder SH27 under left seat. (For the right door it would be fuse in SH25.)
These fuses should be in location 7 in the picture.
Finally Done and on the road.

Morning new to the forum and used it for loads of info before making my recent T6 purchase, been looking at adding an additional led to roof and found all the info required within the forum. So added a led light to interior loom at B post so that when the doors are opened it comes on and dim...
Well as an update I’m still plugging along with the insulation and sound deadening, got the other rear quarter done and the boot. Im not sure if im going to do the roof as the plan is to fit a pop top so its really only the slidingdoors i have left to do after that.
I tried to cover as...
Had a problem with the slidingdoor not opening, so i took out the mechanism, applied some WD40 & that seemed to solve the problem.
However since putting it all back together, the door locks & unlocks fine, but the door is showing as open on the dashboard & the picture of the van with the door...
Well, after taking out all the 7.5amp fuses (and a few of the others just to check all was ok) and finding out that none had blown, I didn't know what to do next.
Came indoors, had a brew & did a bit of using the forum "search" function...
Read a few folk previously had this same issue and...
Since I replaced the roller hinge on the left side slidingdoor, that door has failed to unlock a couple or three times. I daresay there is a separate problem to the hinge, but it was definitely buggered and the main roller had stopped rolling, so maybe I should do a bit more investigating...
Ok, so the time has come to put my beloved Caravelle, aka the "MTB'Velle", up for sale... :cry::oops:
I have a full build thread here - The MTB'Velle - where every single thing I've done to the van, places I've been in it, ideas I had etc have been recorded. If you're interested in the van...
Hi All
The interior lights in my van have stopped working. Nothing has changed they have just stopped.
No lights when I unlock
No lights when I open the door
No lights pressing the map light buttons overhead
No lights when sliding the switch to always on
Help I’m guessing a fuse but which one...
Got a big chunk of the work done today!
Firstly you'll need to take the plastic undertrays off to access everything, then it's time to follow and strip all the wires...
There was a wire running from the ramp up under the passenger seat, under the carpet, and the along the underside of the...
