Good morning,

I am looking for some help from anyone who has had this problem already...

I've got a 2007 Golf Outback caravan. On the roof is a junction box and wiring for solar panels. I cannot find anywhere in the van or near the battery where these wires come out.

Does anyone have a wiring diagram, or know where I can find these wires inside the van to hook them up. It seems that Golf have gone bust, so I can't contact the manufacturer.

Thanks (in advance),

Grahame

The cables from the solar panel come out to the solar power controller which is mounted behind the solar ammeter.

Thanks for the replies. I managed to find tHem - not near the battery where I was looking, but in behind the fuse box near the entry way. The pre-wiring is in place - needs a regulator etc. befor I can hook it up to the battery.

Thanks again for your interest.
