...Appreciate I’ve then got to run the cable through the bulkhead to the THQ wiring connector but that’s no hassle as I know where all the grommets are and (again when I did the amp and dash cam) I have installed a pull through from engine bay to cab which will assist greatly.
Just want to make...
Thanks, I made a new hole with a suitable sized grommet, fused SA3 and then fed the 16mm cable in to the cab through one of the two plugged holes in the firewall. Just waiting for some other bits to arrive and I’ll wire that up to my new DC-DC charger.
I’ll terminate the old SA8 10mm cable...
...as possible. Then I sorted all the cables and the factory loom connection blocks out. Ended up locating the blocks in the recess where the grommet is in the picture and getting the cables as flat as possible.
That’s allowed the battery to now sit nice and flush to the floor once I put the...
...to secure a 5mm piece of ABS. At the other end of that ABS, I fitted the fuel filter.
The wiring is very simple. I used the existing rubber grommet under the seat and fed the wires through this.
Underneath: One connector goes onto the heater, and one connector goes onto the pump.
Above: one...
...else to check.
I have read about the control unit getting water in it and frying components, (i dont have the electric sliding motor hole/grommet to let water through) but checking the actual unit needs to be a last resort if there is a reason i cant just leave this wire disconnected...
...long butterfly bolts or longer as it’s very closed to the roof!
Finally I’ve fished the solar cables from the rear factory hole. Added a grommet to prevent chaffing & the usual grommeted entree cover.
Just need to affix the cable to the roof - another Amazon order for some p clips tonight...
...example of the quality of work…
This is where the gas pipe leaves the metal enclosure for the gas bottle. Note the chafe marks on the softer copper pipe caused by the harder steel surface of the enclosure. No grommets to protect the pipe, no attempt to file the rough edges on the drilled hole
Just the lid. I don’t have a photo of completed mod but it was the grommet on the right hand side through which the rightmost thick black goes from this photo. Then up and behind the battery, scuttle bay and in to the cabin from there.
Two thin wires afair wrapped in tape - one for the relay...
Thinking about van modifications is all fun and joy until they have to be actually done…
I have both pushed wires through existing grommets and added one new grommet :laugh:
...the headlight.
Secondly, I dropped two of the seven screws somewhere down in the depths of the engine.
Third, where do you run the cable - it looks like all the grommets are full and only able to carry the cables that populate them.
Do people make a new hole and grommet it that way?
...cable put in.
Mine produces the warning from the get go and like yours instantly pops back up once I clear the warning.
Like you we have a solar panel with the cabling for that going through a rear grommet. The aerial cable is very thin, I wonder if it’s being pinched too much through this.
...all the required plugs connected to connect directly to the towbar prep connectors at the back. However in order to feed the wire through the grommets I had to "deconstruct" one plug. I also had to "transfer" some of the wires from one connector to the trailer prep connector, but all in all...
50mm² is just about manageable within the seat base with a 230Ah battery in there. It's what I've used for all my main runs to the shunt, main distribution box, and the inverter wiring.
...it floor level, planning on drilling a hole in the bottom of the seatbase somewhere near the back and then with a gland and some conduit or a grommet, running it out and down in to the step void under the floor (I have a twin slider) and then back up into the rear cupboards. I think it’s...
Quick Update: Collected van from All Seasons tonight after agreeing the best solution was to remove the antenna unit and fit a grommet.
After removal there is a little bit more wind noise but the roof shuts perfectly now and the cables are tucked under the roof. Still seems to connect the sos...
