Future access to electrical looms

[scoutabout]

Okay, truth be told I don't own a VW, I own a ford custom, but this seems to be the best site for camoervan conversions.

I am considering converting my van to a camper. I see the vans that are insulated, lined and with kitchen units ect.

My questions is; I know on ford's the harness runs down the side of the van, between the otuerskin and the pillars, alongnthe side where the units go. I also know behind the vans panelling there are some electrical modules with connections, and access parts for lights. I know this is a common thing for many types of vans.

So, how do you plan to access these parts once the van has been converted?

I know some VW have looms behind panels, I think some run through the roof.

Does anyone give it any thought on how it's accesses when faults occur?

Put it all in flexible conduits without: too tight bends, cable ties, tape, twisting cables around each other, splicing or crimping joints…….
Add some spare cables for modifications and label both ends of everything.
Pretty much everything a professional converter won’t do.

Maybe add some detachable panels so you can get to stuff..
