wiring

I’ve installed 6 touch down lights into my camper conversion and they all work absolutely fine when they’re dangling from their wires and not pushed in. But when I push them into the cut out, they don’t respond to touch/ don’t work as intended, they either stay on or stay off. Has anyone else...

Has anyone managed to relocate these buttons back to their original spaces on an ex rac van? I’ve had most of the dash apart and still couldn’t find whatever is securing the metal box in place

Just seen this video by Gadget John on YouTube where he found a very dangerously jointed cable on an Ecoflow supply lead. Could have caused a fire if he hadn't found it, and judging by the fact that the cables are covered in sheathing from the factory, no-one would have had the chance to spot it.

I'm feeling quite lucky and don't want anyone else to make the same mistake.... On the I’m just back from a trip to the Alps and on the way home was having an early morning brew (1kW Kettle) at the same time as having a 12V fan heater on (only 150W) I suddenly had a rather unpleasant smell...

Hi All, Looking for some advice on routing the positive cable from the main battery to the DC-DC charger and leisure batteries I am fitting in the rear of my T6.1. The easiest option is that I already have a second battery under the passenger seat, which is factory fitted to power the...

Hi there , I have a 2016 vw t6 highline which the brake lights have just stopped working, both rear lights and high levels, I have replaced the brake switch on the master cylinder, checked the brake switch fuse sb16 and have also checked the turn and brake light fuse sc47 , I seem to be getting...

Hi All, Do you know of anyone else with this fridge having low voltage issues? It has worked fine for last two trips and was okay for the first two days of this one then stopped cooling and showing 1 & 2 flashes on the error code light inside the fridge. I’ve had it on hook up feed and leisure...

Hi all my first q on here im going to fit a vamoose awning rail to the kerb side of the t6 can anyone advise if the rear lighting loom is near this point

Hello T6 family, I hope someone out there may be able to help me. I am not bad at most aspects of converting but I am a complete retard when if comes to Auto Electrics. I am at the point where I have bought a 110ah Lifepo4 leisure battery and about to locate it under the drivers seat. Can any...

Hi everyone, does anybody recognise this loom? I moved my T6 2016 Caravelle and this was underneath it! Can't help thinking it's not a good thing. Drove fine last time I used it.

I have a surplus of solar cable left over from when I fitted my panel a while back. I’m now in the process of installing a separate solar charge controller and making the ctek solar charger redundant (due to solar panel being too big VoC). Is there any issue using solar cable to link the solar...

Good afternoon all. Fitting my 2019 T6 LWB out as a camper van. Need some help in this regard. I've taken all the rubber matting out and I am about to put down insulation and foundation for the build. BUT! I don't want to drill through the wood into the floor of the van and hit any cables or...

Hi all, I've had my 2017 T6 panel Van for four years now and had more than my fair share of problems ! The latest was that the NS DRL light stopped working and flagged up a "lighting failure" This was diagnosed as corroded wiring and after arguing was fixed at VW UK's cost. A month on and I now...

I've made a blind surround for an ikea blind. Aiming to do the whole van eventually. I plan to fix the surround straight through the front by cutting and lifting small sections of carpet and fixing self tappers into the van body (well that is what I'm hoping to do!). I'm a bit worried about...

Hi all just fitted this wheel in place of my standard wheel how can i get buttons to work

Good evening all, I’m at the stage now where I’m thinking hard about wiring for my conversion and Routes to take to do certain supplies. I’m putting a leisure battery under one of the front seats amd will mount a fuse box in there too. Where do most people run their cables? Under the ply floor...

Hi all. I am currently converting a twin sliding door kombi. Does anyone see a problem with running a 240 cable and a positive feed under the ply floor to rear cupboards. I have the MCB under passenger seat and CTek with leisure battery under drivers seat.

Hi all, Do you all use conduit in your vans for wiring or just run direct / with wiring loom tape. I've seen lots of videos using miles of conduit, and whilst I can see the benefit in some situations in a T6 it seems to perhaps be overkill? I was planning on using some conduit ti run all...

Third post today. Not quite sure about wiring in the Dometic fridge with my Sargent EC160. There appears to be a couple of ins for it on the Sargent. I work with properties and so am fairly ok with wiring etc. But, I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to be doing with the fridge. I think the...
