230v: how do I get it to work?

[Jeroendecker]

I have a question (that may or may not have been already answered). The 2x 230v sockets in my Grenadier. How do I get them to provide power? They only seem to work with the engine running.

Do they work if you turn on the power switch in the overhead console? This switch turns the power on and off for the 12v outlets when the vehicle is switched off so could also control the inverter.

Hi steve, nah... tried that. The 12v in the back needs a switch flicked. The 230v's just dont seem to work without the engine running.

Seems so ey Anand? That really is quite the bummer. I wonder why they opted to do that...
