That totally doesn't make sense to me. I thought the whole point of ignition live is to stop something running when the ignition is off? That's how my Sterling works, and most electronics that use ign live, but like @Dellmassive mentioned my charger does run for a couple of minutes after...

Have an issue with a Nextbase iQ dash cam. It kind of needs to be wired in using the oBD2 port adapter to access the low battery switch off function. Problem is when I plugged it in head unit goes blank and engine is crank no start. Nextbase suggested contacting a stealership. Wired up the...

Your cam senses the voltage rise when the engine is running and powers down when the engine is switched off instead of using an igntition live feed.

Ignition signal is normally taken from the centre section of the dash fusebox that is ignition switched. There are generally no switched feeds under the seats unless you have the factory second battery, or full factory 13pin towing electrics and are willing to configure things with VCDS...

Hi All, I am trying to install my hardwire dashcam kit with fuse taps (T6.1 fuse box under / right side of the steering wheel). Can someone point out which fuse i should use for the permanent live and switch live please? Any help would be appreciated.

Could be passenger seat or could be centre console. Behind the centre console is a fuse box with easy access to permanent live and switched live. If you don’t have a leisure battery then a switched live makes more sense.

...or off white? I sent a pic them of my trim and then ordered. Initially they sent completely the wrong housing and eventually the correct one came which I then had to swap over the internals. I’m thinking just to go hard wired maybe to the interior light pod where I hope to find switched...

Thanks pal. So your method still sends signal to the bcm? So +ve red from leisure battery to rocker #2 Switched -ve from the loom to the #1 position, but that means there’s no return? Can I be incredibly stupid and ask how u did it via a diagram?

Your permanent live is for your general power supply. The Switched live is so the unit knows when the ignition is on (and so it's safe to have the unit powered up) and when it is not (so the unit should power down to not drain your starter battery) This is a common arrangement across media...

Hi I have mount some usb sockets in the b pillars and can anyone advise were the closest switch live is to tap into as only want them on when van is started .

It all about the money! Living in a recession with governments posturings towards potential hostility and expansionism, insecure fuel supplies and so on companies will do anything to stay afloat. It is sensible for cross company developments to keep down design and production costs. Companies...

And quick q, on my diagram, presume the ignition live is the wire from the scr to the fuse box? And that is where switch will go. Do these little rocker switches just get wired in line with spade connectors or do they also need grounding as they have a led? Again, bear with my Luddite level of...

That’s interesting because National Grid: Live is still reporting some coal generation. Even a small amount today.

T6 - do you happen to know what channel the Tiptronic switch adaption lives on? I’m just gettting to grips with OBDeleven and can’t seem to find a list of adaptions

-- Removable EHU Charger -- the EHU in the van just connects to one socket under the passenger seat, this is to be used for one purpose - a a 30A-50A 12v leisure battery charger. thats it. . . its just there to run the charger that will support the battery bank. that way its safe and i have...

Installing like that would mean no RCD protection when on Inverter. Would work on pass through. Also both L and N will be “live” at 115Vac on Inverter. Edit: Also pretty sure Electrical Regs require an RCD at the entry point to the camper; so mains between EHU socket and inverter mains input

How often do you expect power cuts? Versus the cost of the additional install complexity? The Sunsynk has a separate UPS output. The idea being that you feed a separate consumer unit with essential loads connected, but the mains in still needs to be connected for G98 approval and changing...

I am switching the "D+" ignition switch signal live so I can turn the charger off if I don't want it running with the engine/ignition on. Renogy 20A DC/DC.. rebadged as Wired Campers.

We have got a bog standard van I'm considering fitting a dashcam and for reasons i have the little storage bin on the roof lining out Is there a switched live in the bundle of wires behind it or do i need to find a switched live and run a feed up there?

i am trying to install a shark fin 2, for better DAB, in the instructions it talks about a feed to PHANTOM ? and REM ? i don't understand what it means. i know it needs a switched live, but can i take it from the fuse box ? if i haven't got a remote cable from the stereo?
