Aux sockets.

Michael Brindley · Jun 25, 2023

Has anybody found aux outlets in footwells,under bonnet and fusebox.Had a quick look but cant see anything obvious.Do you have to remove covers.Quick start guide very vague not a good picture.

You want lighting in your footwells?

Already have lighting in footwells.Want to use aux sockets

removal of side panels driver side and using the auxiliary power point

I still don’t understand why Ineos gives me a lot of useless switches on my roof panel without any explanation. Therefore, and thanks to this forum my next DIY post (DIY: Do It Yourself), and I didn’t find on this forum somebody who already did it, but perhaps I am wrong … I dismounted the...

Another Aux power wire end is also found near the aux battery under the rear seat (it has 3 wires, circuit rated at 40 amps):

Michael Brindley · Jun 25, 2023

Thanks.3 wires?These not from roof console.are they switched or just from fuses

I think the third is an ignition source, but not 100% sure.

The brown led is permanently live (40amp Fuse F113), black is ground and the yellow is switched on with the ignition.

I connected the ARB compressor to these wires

Can I assume you mean
The brown lead (cable?) .......
Black is Ground???

I have only seen the same image. Someone else on the site suggested the ignition source, but I cannot find that link now.

Brown is the third, as white/cream and black are the other two.

Sorry if I wasn’t clear enough

There are three wires (cables or leads if you prefer)

The brown wire is heavy duty and is permanently live. It is on fuse F113 (40amp).

The black wire is the associated earth (or ground if you prefer)

The yellow wire is live with the ignition.

I connected my compressor up to these three wires earlier today.

Hope that clarifies a bit for you

I deleted my post after reading your original one, I had missed it on the first read. Your post was clear.

I have taken it as a screenshot, so I know what is what when I come to use it. Although it would be easier if INEOS would release a wiring guide for the aux power sources.

So much tech info is coming to light on the forum. Thanks to all.

I like your compressor install.
Looks like a neat solution

Why did you use all three? Did you use a relay to make live only with ignition on?

Yes

This forum is amazing,thanks for your help.Have you found the ones under bonnet yet.Want to weigh up my options for i commit to wiring.Thankd

It has been found, looking for the link now, Jean Mercier found it.

EDIT: look here.

Hi. Please can you send some pics of the ARB compressor installation?
Thanks

Is this what you are looking for Larry?

What did you do with your Grenadier today?

@AnD3rew LHD, Trialmaster, Diesel Today I continued the disassembly of various trim. Among other things, the panels and box on the centre tunnel as well as the trim on both sides. Likewise near the glove box. Especially the box for the beverage cups and the two other parts cannot be removed by...

Hi guys, today I connected Deutsch plugs to the two cable ends in the engine compartment (10 amp and 25 amp).
The 10 amp line is switched via switch EXT1 and the 25 amp via switch EXT5.

I used a Deutsch DT for the 10 amp and a Deutsch DTP (like on the roof) for the 25 amp.

I really struggled with this and was once again very annoyed about the assembly in Hambach and the development/construction.
Both cable ends are tied off so short from the thick cable harness that you must not have completed your 10th year of life for your hands to still fit in. It took me hours.
I have connected a high-voltage device with metal plates in the engine compartment and underneath to the 10 amp socket for marten repellent, which I only activate via the switch when necessary. My vehicle is usually parked in the garage.

However, the 25 amp socket has no voltage. I assume that this is related to the software issue in connection with the missing front winch and the Nato socket. This currently has no voltage either if you have not fitted a front winch. I will clarify this later.

During assembly, I discovered that the thin cables leading to the brake fluid reservoir sensor were so stretched that they would have torn off in the foreseeable future.
Again I was annoyed with the production people in Hambach. Surely this had to be noticed during assembly!

The easiest thing I could do was to build a strain relief. I pulled the whole wiring harness up a bit and the thin cable to the brake fluid reservoir was relaxed again.
Have any of you already fitted these cable ends with connectors? And do you have voltage on the 25amp socket? With or without front winch?

And by the way, how can you be so clumsy as to use some kind of insulation material in the engine compartment. Martens love that kind of thing. This shows that the developers have little practical experience.

You beat me on this, this was my next goal, DTP connectors on these wires.
I measured voltage on both lines, the 25A and 10A, as I explained somewhere on another thread.

I understand your anger against Ineos, they don't treat us as we should be treated: not enough decent information!
And these wires should have had a connector!

I will check the brake fluid sensor cables, thanks for the tip.
