    Best use of spare LiFepo4 battery.

    Not a single build thread, but posts in various leisure electrics threads and the ‘what have you done to your van today’ thread. Mine was an upgrade to lifepo4 plus solar which also meant replacing the existing, but unsuitable, CBE kit and taking the opportunity to relocate things from the rear...

    Not a single build thread, but posts in various leisure electrics threads and the ‘WHYDTYVT’ thread. Mine was an upgrade to lifepo4 plus solar which also meant replacing the existing, but unsuitable, CBE kit and taking the opportunity to relocate things from the rear wardrobe. In short(ish), it...

    Ad-blue MFD not displaying

    Was it still taking a cable into the bottom black and purple plug in the e box to activate ccs ? I don’t think @Tanstalf got his ccs working and now think it’s something to do with the earlier clocks or something to do with it being a EURO5

    Grounding to chasis, is there any need for additional one if leisure battery is linked to starter battery?

    Well it is ford's own specs for the starter ground not mine and I guess they knew right. There is no earth to the fuse box? Therer is a jump and the negative goes into the negative busbar. Ok so I did a bit of fiddling with the wires before the light went down and it isn't even the ground from...

    Barn-door To Tailgate Conversion

    I can't help much with this as i de-wipered my tailgate. You may be able to find the route using parts catalogs, if you go on lllparts.co.uk you can search the vw parts books and see if that helps. Bit easier on the 6.1 wiring wise, as you have seen. You will probably need to change some coding...

    Ecoflow Alternator Charger 800W

    I have had an Alternator Charger and Delta 2 installed in my T6.1 California since September, and it's truly been an awesome experience. I hooked it up to the factory leisure battery under the passenger seat, and occasionally do reverse charging, and everything works wonderfully. However, I've...

    cable routing

    @jhian123 Post #12 coves both, but I imagine @Deaky and I are both thinking you mean the engine bay, in which case post #18 is more in depth. https://www.t6forum.com/threads/engine-bay-cable-route-through-bulkhead-firewall-to-cabin.1318/

    cable routing

    Hello all, am looking to install the renogy dual dc charger under my drivers seat but need to get a cable from under the drivers seat to the fuse box of my t6.1. Any ideas of the best route, ideally under the floor, seems most logical , however that is rarely the case

    Finished off installing the CTEK DC to DC charger under passenger seat to replace OEM SCR (T6.1 with factory leisure battery). Was going to fit Victron after some Forum recommendations but wanted ability for Solar and the CTEK is one unit, plus I got a great Trade price on one so went for it...

    Ecoflow Alternator Charger 800W

    Thanks for the above My daily commute to work is 20miles so that should be ok. I'm tempted to upgrade the alternator but looks like a pig of a job. Lastly anyone got a video of how to route the cable through to the battery ?

    What have I done.. What is next?

    Here is my list if anyone wants to know more about what I have done to my Cali Ocean 2016. I think I will end up with the SF tuning Panamera full kit on it next, but I have to deal with the minor issue of being made redundant and starting up my own business.. as soon as that's out of the way...

    Lithium LifePo4 12v Batteries - Time For An Upgrade?

    I replaced mine with a Victron ip65 as I didn’t want to cause any issues, plus I was going the full Victron route. In reality I’ve not even fitted it (cables in place ready) as I find the solar covers my needs. The whole point of going lifepo4 and solar for me was to be off-grid and it has...

    Upgraded Lithium leisure battery - update

    Had a similar experience with mine when I found the existing system fitted by a so called professional conversion company (now gone bust!) was not suitable for the van and wasn’t lithium capable. I changed pretty much all of it and fitted solar and relocated the battery and chargers to under the...

    Upgraded Lithium leisure battery - update

    Hi pal. I get charge when the van is running, have no solar as not really needed. Have a fridge running, lights and usbs when out camping. If we have hook up we have a tv too. The ip22 is only in use when hooked up to EHU. But max we would be off grid is 2-3 days so nothing major. I have...

    My full electrics upgrade project with a long inverter cable run

    Next I had to start looking at the seat base itself. I made some slight modifications to the base to allow more room for the cables to come up into the seat base and also made some hole in the side which is where the 2 50mm2 cables are going to be routed to the back of the van for the inverter...

    My full electrics upgrade project with a long inverter cable run

    So progress has been made on the install at last. I’ve moved the amp from the drivers seat to the passenger seat. I managed to get it to fit at the front if the enclosure that the sub is mounted in. I re-routed the audio cables over to the passenger seat and ran a new 16mm2 cable to power the...

    New Van Electrics layout WIP

    When you come to the installation, I would earth to the nearest earth point on the van, rather than route everything back with cable to an earth busbar. Less cable needed, and less voltage drop. For example, if your diesel heater is under drivers footwell, there is an earth point right next to it.
