Towbar help

[Niknak]

Right this ones for @Dellmassive and @Deaky
Putting fresh towbar wiring in as it had after market which was shite, refuse to buy the link loom so can someone remove me what feeds the fuse box under passenger seat these are wether they are ignition or permanent, so I can run my own in cheers In advance the pic below is the fitting manual saying which pins in the 12 way fuse box under the passanger seat of which I don’t have cheers

Or if some one could probe fuses 4 5 6 for me in the 12 way fuse box and tell me if they are ign or perm cheers

I have a startline van with no fuse box under the passenger seat. I have three wiring kits to do the complete install

1) the main kit going to the tow bar with module under the passenger seat and connections into the BCM.

2) A switched live feed kit with relay for the trailer auxiliary power feed for something like a fridge in a caravan. This needs an ignition switched feed to trigger the relay, and put power through to the 13pin socket. This has a thickish cable with fuse to connect to the battery. I’m considering this as an optional install.


3) A remote fuse box kit that also has a thick fused cable that goes to the battery. There are three connectors in kit 1 that slot into the fuse box. From what I’ve read this is permanently live. This kit wasnt too expensive.

I have thought about putting one thick sleeved and fused battery cable to under the passenger seat and then connecting kits 2 & 3 to this. Logic being I have a FO size cable for future upgrades and only one hefty cable from cab to battery (rather than 2)

If you need any part number or copies of install instructions then let me know.

Ian

@oldiebut goodie had filled me in they are all permanent so making a loom and fuse box instead of buying the add on kit cheers

Everything in the A9 fuse box is permanently live, it’s supplied by the under seat leisure battery.

Brilliant thank you I did suspect that just wondered if it was controlled by a relay at all to be with ign just saves me buying the link loom and just running my own in cheers

Just seen this - my fuses are fed from the starter for sure - 12v plus, same as starter battery, seen on the fuses whereas the leisure batteries were sitting at 13.5v when I checked.
