EHU OUT from VANs 240v to REAR socket.
Time for the RED link,
as the van was up and some of the trim removed, i carried on.
getting the remainder of the Blue 3core mains cable.
i removed the trim from under the passenger side, down to the rear by the spare wheel carrier.
we took...
Currently making the most of a day where it's sun one minute, hail the next, to make this mess... :D
AKA wiring in an Anderson connector from the passenger LB install to the drivers side seat back. Feeding the 2x 10mm² cables through wasn't too bad once I'd lifted the carpet a bit, but if...
@Two7Five many thanks :thumbsup: I think I’ve pretty much worked it all out! But thanks for the info. I think be managed to fit the trailer and LED headlight module (separately) directly to the seat base on the handbrake side with the alpine amp on the door side of the seat base. Had a word with...
I'm looking to install an EHU hookup point under the bonnet next to the starter battery, very similar to @Deaky solution earlier in this thread.
My plan would be to also install a 3 pin hookup plug and ip67 rated consumer unit under the bonnet, then run a single cable through the existing...
Yeah looks like you have a factory fitted aux battery with some extra looms the same as mine. I just removed all of the extra RAC stuff including the stuff that goes forwards and will install my leisure stuff completely separate, and leave all that alone. Whilst you’ve got it like that might be...
Yes, use a Chassis NEG underseat.
Either seat bolt, or dedicated ground stud under carpet.
Getting between the seats was easy, I used a rod to push between the seat bases, the pulled the cable through. On my van I used 20mm flexible plastic conduit to protect the cableunder the carpet..
I...
Auto electrician has been. Hoping it would be a quick fix, but everything under the passengerseat seems ok. It's going to have to go to his unit so he has power etc, furhter investigation not do-able in minus 3 on the main road.
However, whatever has been disturbed/shorted causes all the...
Right the final bits turned up today, I need to get the seat off and have a proper measure up. But if I have to route the cables to the battery from under the passengerseat that should be OK.
So this is how I think it should be connected.
It's the order I would like to confirm...
I was going...
I have a similar pop top with solar. My cable runs through a small hole at the front of the roof (sealed of course) then to the left hand B pillar, down inside the B pillar trim (where the passengerseat belt is) and pops out the bottom and then into my controller and battery. My battery is...
Thanks for that- I did all the leads and earths and new battery when it first started. Seemed to improve starting a bit (was just slow starting and the coil light then). Then it didn’t start but would if you kept trying (rocking in gear no help). Did that a few times weeks apart getting longer...
Hi thanks for responding. The seats are OEM from a German caravelle and our van is also German. In these photos you can see the control on the dash, and all of the cables and connections available under the passengerseat.
That chunky red cable in the second photo looks like the factory fit aux battery cable that is fed from the e-box.
In my T6 I used mine to feed my Ring RSDC50 without issue. It was fused at SA8 with a 50a midi and only fed the dash cigarette lighter sockets.
However, yours may feed some...
I suggest you try this for a bit to see if it works for you.
Longer term you can get replacement rear panels that attach with magnets/screws in furniture ply that you can mount sockets and panels on...
Thanks! I didn't even know about the one under my seat! Thinking about retrofitting some heated seats from this now haha.
I've attached what's under my seat
And assuming this is what I'd need: link
What would be the neatest way to tap/splice into this? - Also potentially a stupid question, but...
Can anybody recommend the best and/or easiest cable route to run from this fuse panel to under the passengerseat? I assume seats and floor will need removing?
I’m pretty sure there isn’t. It’s under the driver’s seat.
The fault re-occurred a couple of weeks ago while I was re-fitting the lower centre dash panel (the one that covers the fuse panel and goes over the gear lever) from the passenger side whilst kneeling and leaning on the floor mat in...
