So this is the bit where I describe the installation of the Voltage Sensing Relay and other electrical gubbins.
Steve from Raw Components did a bit of electrical magic and combined a VSR and conventional 12v relay to run the fridge while driving. Connecting the bits supplied was a doddle as the instructions were quite clear. The challenge was getting the wires from the engine bay into the body of the van. VW kindly installed undertrays and heat shields under the van to protect the underbody and this served to make it quite a challenge. Non the less after 6 hours of scrabbling about on my back in the gutter, scraping most of the skin off my hands and establishing that the maximum waist size to work under the van without ramps is about 36", the job was almost done.
Bad light stopped play - thats the problem with doing a conversion this time of year, so the final fit comes later this weekend - all I need now is a battery to charge and a fridge to run !
But what about the yoga I hear you exclaim ..... forget yoga for a full budy workout ..... try threading 3x cables through a VW T5 undertray and you will find muscles (and language) you thought you might never need to use!!!
