    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    The thing to watch with that cable is in general it must be protected from UV - there seems to have been a trend for using it outside as either a SWA-lite or "armoured artic" and it's not suitable for either as the clear jacket will quickly harden and crack. They're specifically made as control...

    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    I can't really advise you. But you can have a look what I have done, no, the cable is not near the pedal, comes out at steering wheel height and I've used a nature groove in the body work

    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    ...from my solar controller which is under my driver's seat to under the bonnet so I can connect my portable solar panel. Would this be better a route to use rather than the grommet behind the battery on my 6.1. Also were does it come out in the van, I am guessing it must be very close to the...

    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    Has anyone thought of using this protected cable? It should be rugged enough to use in any location provided holes through steel are grommeted.

    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    For those that might be interested there is a second grommet. Just look for a route of least resistance. There is also a nice grove which naturally holds the cable (test fitting only, but would secure it )

    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    I like this, I'll brave the cold tomorrow and see if there is a grommet on the driver side

    240v cable separately from 12v (cable route)

    Hi all, I've had a little search in the forum but can't find my answer. Is there a secondly grommet other than the one behind the starter battery? I want to put my 240v hook under the bonnet but someone said mention that the 240v should be keep away from the 12v. I already have a 12v cable...

    Towbar wiring - towbar prep ?

    Aftermarket dedicated tow bar wiring kit runs along the underside of the van up into the engine bay to connect to the battery then across the engine bay, through the firewall on the drivers side to connect to the BCM. There is also a branch through the grommet under the passenger seat.

    Benefit to battery under passenger seat

    ...DC-DC charger and fuse box under the passenger seat, used the existing channels to route the feed from the starter battery through the grommet in the bulkhead under the scuttle and down following the channel marked, covered it with an aluminium plate to protect it once in place. I did keep...

    Benefit to battery under passenger seat

    I went under the passenger seat. Wanted the space under the drivers seat for air out let for heater. I did mount the DC-DC under there though. Dead easy cable run through the bulkhead grommet

    Barn door alignment

    Should be a 10 min job. Remove the rubber grommets slacken the nuts and put to the original marks. I tend to find it easier if you leave 1 nipped up and move the opposite end to place then vice versa.

    Rubber Grommets for Dometic Cooker - UK sellers want too much!

    Do you know what I’m talking about? Those two little rubber grommets that secure the rack on the Dometic cooker? Mine lasted about 6 weeks from new before disintegrating. Maybe it was vigorous cleaning from the missus, but more likely poor quality rubber just not up to the job. I tried to find...

    Mysterious wire entering bulkhead

    I was attempting to route the cable for my DC to DC charger this afternoon. I planned to use the lower grommet behind the battery but it appears it is already occupied by an unknown wire. The wire comes from below the headlight, along the wing and it enters the the cab on the passanger side. It...

    EHU cable-run in to cab area.

    I think many do if they are also running a 12v charge feed as it's easy to route both at once so long as there is space. There are a list of alternative points in this thread: https://www.t6forum.com/threads/split-charge-cabling-sunroof-drain-pipe-grommet-issue.41261/

    EHU cable-run in to cab area.

    ...collective. Just a quick question. And yes I have searched Those of you with split charging and EHU under the bonnet, did you use the same hole through the passenger side grommet? I'm about to run my EHU hook up into the drivers side base but wanted to check if there was another route. Cheers

    Benefit to battery under passenger seat

    Heat shield mate. There’s room to manoeuvre though. Nearside possibly has the AdBlue tank if you’re Eu6 and a heater on the offside if you’ve got a factory fit jobbie -
